About

Designer–engineer with 20 years in digital products: eight years building software as an engineer and system analyst, then more than a decade leading UX/UI design and product for FinTech, blockchain, POS, and KYC platforms.

I'm comfortable owning the whole journey — user research, wireframes, design systems, developer handoff, and increasingly the build itself. My current focus is AI-assisted product development, using tools such as Claude Code to take products from idea to prototype to production.
