About
I am a creative who feels most at home when an idea can move from a sketch to a screen to something people actually use.
I like the moment when a thoughtful interface makes a complicated day feel lighter.
Design is how I make sense of things. Building is how I test whether that sense holds up. I enjoy both sides of the process: finding the right question, shaping the interaction, writing the small details, and staying with the code until the experience feels natural. I am happiest when I can move between a messy whiteboard and a working product without losing the original spark.
I grew up in a family shaped by medicine. Conversations about clinics, patients, long shifts, and the tiny frustrations hidden inside important work were part of everyday life. That background gave me a useful view into healthcare. I notice the gap between what a tool promises and what a doctor can realistically use in the middle of a busy day.
That perspective found a home in Momentum AI, a hackathon-winning project that turned a healthcare challenge into a focused, usable product. The win was exciting. The better part was seeing a team take a complicated idea, cut through the noise, and make something coherent under pressure. It confirmed that healthcare is a space where my design instincts and technical curiosity can do real work together.
I care about tools that respect the people using them. Clear language matters. Fast feedback matters. A button in the right place can matter more than a clever feature nobody can find. I like learning the routines around a problem, watching where attention gets lost, and building a path that feels obvious once it exists.
My process is energetic and hands-on. I collect references, sketch quickly, prototype early, and ask a lot of questions. I can spend an unreasonable amount of time tuning a transition or rewriting one line of copy, then happily jump into the data flow behind it. The craft lives in those connections.
Away from the screen
Read
I keep a rotating stack of books nearby and usually leave with more tabs, notes, and recommendations than I started with.
Lift
The gym gives my brain a clean reset. Progress is slow, measurable, and refreshingly honest.
Hike
A long trail is my favorite way to trade notifications for weather, switchbacks, and a view worth earning.
