DESIGN PROCESS

A vibrant energy source branching out with threads of energy into space.

Brutally Pragmatic

I cut through the bullshit and consistently deliver exceptional, high-impact output at every stage of the digital product development process.

No abstract methodology, only effective frameworks tried and tested over more than a decade of delivering top-tier output.

Relentlessly Technical

Drawing upon 15 years of experience in 3D & VFX, I place each layer with precision and intent, add every shadow and blur effect with purpose.

The holy grail is pixel-perfect screen design which is accessible, fits the user's needs, and is a delight to use.

Profoundly Human

Open, honest communication, coupled with objective, actionable feedback, are core tenets of my professional code.

I form long-lasting, trust-based bonds with all stakeholders, which is key for building motivated, autonomous teams.

"We don't rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training."

ABOUT ME

Honed Intuition

The ability to make decisions and limit-test ideas by steelmanning opposing perspectives is what defines a designer.

A massive part of my professional growth has consisted of investing into this skill set vigorously.

Burning Passion

Trial and error is the single biggest learning opportunity out there.

My superpower is simple: I fucking live for the grind.

I put in the work, and if it doesn't meet my quality standards, I do it again, and again, and again until it does.

Tamed Perfectionism

The single-minded striving for perfection is what separates good designers from truly great ones.

Over the last decade, I have evolved a disciplined version of perfectionism, which accounts for real-world resource and timing constraints to deliver realistic results.
