About
Fifteen years in and I still think the most interesting part of this job is figuring out why something feels wrong before anyone can say what it is. I've worked across consumer apps, B2B tools, streaming platforms and design systems. The domain changes. The problem of getting out of the user's way doesn't.
When I'm not in Figma: pulling espresso on an Ascaso Steel Duo, single origin, dialled in obsessively. Or out on the GSX-R 1000 R on an empty Brandenburg road. Both are about feel. Both punish inattention immediately.
