I’m a designer and developer working across digital products, brand systems, illustration, photography, and moving images. I like taking an idea from its roughest form to something people can actually use, see, or experience, which I think is the most fun part of the creative process!

My work shifts between code and visual craft often, but the aim stays consistent - make the concept clear, give it character, and finish the details properly.

open to collabs or projects!
