About

My main goal? To shrink the design/development gap.

 

Back in 2011, I was designing and coding websites for fun. This hobby soon turned into a recurring freelance gig before becoming my career. Today, I design fintech and trading interfaces at Wormhole Labs, a web3 company known for developing one of the earliest crypto token bridges between blockchains.

I strive for a minimalist design, always looking to distill complex info in a simple and easily digestible form for end users. This often means writing code to ensure that my Figma designs are deployed pixel-perfectly into production. I spent the past year linking Claude to my GitHub account to remove the gap completely, using AI agents to build my static designs into fully-functioning prototypes.

The most impactful product designers add measurable value with their work and don't just "make something pretty".  Deliverables as the sole product design lead span across many artifacts, including creating user journey maps, wireframes, visual design, analyzing post-launch data, conducting user research sessions, and measuring the design team’s impact on the company’s bottom line.

Other interests including traveling, spending time with friends and family, and learning to fly a Cessna Skyhawk 172.
