Why me?

👀 Curiosity

And that's a feature, not a bug. I don't start designing until I actually understand the problem which means fewer revisions and better outcomes

🔍 Evidence

User surveys, usability tests, competitive analysis I use evidence to make the case for design decisions, not just plain intuition and validation

🧩 real systems

I've redesigned live products used by millions inside actual orgs with brand standards and stakeholders. I know how to deliver without blowing up what exists

✈️ Mum → SFo

Different cities, different cultures, different industries. That range is what makes my work human not just functional, not just polished

My approach

01 — understand

Start with people

I spend more time understanding the problem than designing the solution. Surveys, interviews, competitive analysis all before Figma opens

03 — design

Prove it, then build it

Every design decision I make has a reason behind it. I test, iterate, and refine until the solution earns its place

02 — question

find the real problem

Good design starts with the right problem. I ask uncomfortable questions early so we're not solving the wrong thing beautifully

04 — deliver

Design that ships

I work within constraints brand systems, stakeholders, live products. I make meaningful changes without blowing up what exists
