I design brands and build websites for communities and events, where every pixel either earns trust or erodes it.
I'm currently at Platform Engineering, where I design and build across brands likePlatformConand House of Kube, from websites to on-the-ground experience design for our Live Days.
I also built Design Clanker, an open source tool that automates the parts of design work that shouldn't need a human every time.
On weekends I'm building FinalCopy, a calm writing app that quietly produces clean, semantic HTML.
I believe good design is mostly restraint, and that it should bring delight to whoever's experiencing it.
