About

Interfaces for complex, real-world systems.

I design interfaces for complex, real-world systems — from airline booking flows to hotel operations and civic services. I care about clarity, accessibility, and making UX feel human.

Approach

How I work

  1. Understand the system

    I map users, constraints, and edge cases early. For complex products this often means diagrams and quick stakeholder interviews before a single pixel is placed.

  2. Explore options, fast

    I sketch flows and wireframes, then move into Figma prototypes to test with real tasks — cheap iterations before expensive ones.

  3. Shipable UI, not just dribbbles

    I document decisions, define reusable components, and hand off in a way that helps engineers build confidently.
