Research first
I talk to users before I touch Figma.
UX research, interface design, and frontend code — in one person. I work with AI as a production team I direct, not a tool I prompt.
About
I'm a UX/UI Designer and Frontend Engineer based in Vancouver. I research before I open Figma, design for real constraints, and write the code when the handoff matters.
I've shipped across e-commerce, SaaS, and service businesses. The industry changes. The process doesn't: understand what users actually need — not what the brief assumes — then build for that.
I also direct AI agents as part of my production workflow. Not as a shortcut — as a capability multiplier. It's changed what one person can ship in a sprint.
I talk to users before I touch Figma.
I know what's painful to build. It changes how I design.
Components, tokens, patterns — not one-off screens.
I run agents. I don't just use tools.
Selected work
Each one is a full story — from research through to a live product.
AI workflow
Most designers use AI to go faster. I use it to go further — handling research synthesis, prototype generation, and production code while I focus on the decisions that require judgment.
01
I feed raw interview transcripts and session recordings into AI pipelines I've built. Themes, patterns, and contradictions surface in minutes instead of days.
02
I describe interaction logic in plain language and get working prototypes back. I review, redirect, and refine — the judgment layer is mine. The production layer is delegated.
03
Components, copy variants, accessibility audits — I run these through agent workflows I've configured. I'm the captain. The agents are the crew.
Tools I direct
Process
Understand the problem before touching Figma. Validate before building. Stay close through delivery.
Listen before everything. Interviews, audits, recordings — find the actual problem.
Turn raw research into a problem statement everyone agrees on before opening Figma.
Lo-fi first, always. Sketch, test early, find the gaps, then refine.
Clean specs, real handoffs, and code when it matters.

A role, a project, or just a conversation about design. I'm usually back within a day.
