About

I design it, then I build it.

I'm a Product Designer and UI Engineer currently at Coudera, a technology studio where I design and build digital products for clients across manufacturing, sports, and industrial sectors. Before that, four years of freelance work and internships built my foundation.

What defines my work is that I own the full pipeline. In a 3-person team, there's nowhere to hide — if something needs to be researched, designed, or built in code, I do it. That's given me a rare fluency between design and engineering.

One of my most meaningful challenges has been creating forms for factory workers with limited digital literacy — where every extra field means real errors and real money lost. That shaped how I think about accessibility and designing for people, not personas.

Outside of design, I'm a music producer — released on international electronic labels and collaborated with artists on Anjunadeep. Making music taught me the same thing design does: how to craft experiences that move people with structure and intention.

Currently seeking: A full-time role as a Product Designer or Design Engineer at a company that values craft, user impact, and building things that matter.
