Designer + Design Engineer
I'm a design engineer based in California, working across product design, frontend development, design systems, accessibility, and interaction design. I take products from planning and Figma through React and TypeScript implementation, client delivery, physical device testing, and ongoing iteration.

Current focus
I lead product and design engineering for InkVein while designing, developing, and supporting Cruzn Clean's website and booking experience.

Design background
My work spans UI/UX, interaction design, prototyping, accessible interfaces, design systems, and client brand work.
03
Engineering background
I build with TypeScript, React, Next.js, React Native, Python, and REST APIs, working across frontend and backend constraints.

Tools
Figma, GitHub, Docker, Codex, Bruno, Wireshark, Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, InDesign, Blender, and Procreate.

Product philosophy
I like carrying ideas from planning into working software, testing them on real devices, and improving them through client and user feedback.
