About

Engineered interfaces, quietly shipped.

Across JavaScript, React, and Node — with strong opinions about performance, accessibility, and the small motions that make an interface feel alive.

Interfaces with taste

Figma to production without the wireframe-to-shipped gap. Type, motion, micro-interactions — the details users feel before they notice.

Fast by default

Web Vitals as a budget, not a checklist. Image pipelines, code-splitting, GPU-composited animations. No third-party bloat.

Scalable foundations

Type-safe APIs, normalized state, caching where it counts. Code that grows with the team — and reads cleanly a year later.

Ship, measure, refine

Small PRs, instrumented rollouts, CI gates. Velocity that holds up over months — not a sprint that burns out the codebase.

How I work

From idea to live, in three moves.

Short cycles, visible progress, fewer surprises — here's the shape of every engagement.

01discover

Scope & sketch

Fast discovery — goals, constraints, edge cases. Figma wireframes, not pixel-polish yet.

02build

Design & build

Interface, components, API, data model — written in one pass so they stay in sync.

03ship

Ship & iterate

Deploy on Vercel, measure, refine. Small PRs, short cycles, no surprises.

Tight feedback loop
