About

I stopped handing designs over and started shipping them.

I am a product designer and fullstack agentic designer. I take products from research through to shipped builds, and I own the design-to-code loop so that a design system in Figma runs exactly as intended in production.

Most of the waste I have seen in product teams sits in the handover. Intent gets written down, passed along, partially understood, and rebuilt approximately. Running design and implementation as one loop, with AI-native tooling doing the repetitive translation, removes that gap rather than managing it.

In practice that means I am the person who runs the research session, builds the token set, writes the TypeScript, and pushes the release. I lead delivery on AXE, an LMS, and OutOut, a social events app, and I founded and run Confety, an event-ticketing platform live on iOS, Android and web.

I also ran a WCAG 2.1 AA audit for AXE that mapped remediation across the whole codebase, and I hold certifications in UX design and research, and in cybersecurity.
