About
Engineer turned product designer. I build Figma plugins, ship Claude skills, write about design and engineering, and try to close the gap between the two.
Story
I started as a software engineer because I liked building things. Then I discovered that the most interesting problems weren't in the code — they were in the gap between what engineers build and what people actually need.
That gap is where product design lives. I moved into design roles, but I never stopped writing code. The combination turned out to be the most useful thing about me.
The through-line: I find the thing that's slow or broken, and I fix it. Then I ship it so other people don't have to fix it themselves.
