Craft for emerging technology
I curate experiences for emerging technologies through the spirit of craftsmanship. I studied product, interaction, user experience and web design, and coding, and before that graphic design, new media, motion graphics, TV and film.
I use a multidisciplinary approach to find opportunities and develop creative solutions, combining engineering, design, prototyping and research to tell stories through rapid, iterative prototypes.
Today that increasingly means designing and building at the same time. I take a concept straight from a Figma file to a coded, working prototype with Figma MCP, Claude Code and other AI tools.
What stakeholders click through is the same fidelity engineering ships, not a mockup that gets reinterpreted along the way.
