I design products people actually want to use — and build the systems that make them consistent at scale. 3 years leading design and brand at a tech startup, plus hands-on technical chops that most designers don't have.
An open-source, decentralized chat platform competing visually with Discord and Slack while giving users true ownership of their communications.
I inherited a fragmented design system and rebuilt it from scratch — fully modular component library, redesigned onboarding, file sharing UX, and an accessibility push that grew into a full in-app theme editor with OpenDyslexic and custom font support.
Beyond the product: website, marketing emails, social graphics, investor pitch decks.
Creative assets across formats — stream thumbnails, live overlays, and VTuber character design.
Hardware prototyping and 3D modeling — product concepts, component renders, and physical design explorations.
Brand identity, event marketing, and creative projects — car show posters to logo design.
I'm a designer with a technical streak and a background that spans product UI/UX, brand identity, marketing, and a bit of full-stack development. I've led design at a startup, built my own apps, and I care a lot about making things that are both beautiful and actually usable.
