I turn curiosity into digital products—then keep tinkering until they feel simple.

WHAT I DO

I turn messy ideas into products people can actually enjoy - interfaces that feel obvious, logic that holds up, and details that quietly do the work.

OFF THE CLOCK

A little more than my résumé.

I like things with momentum: products taking shape, skis pointing downhill, a car that responds instantly, or that half-second before jumping from a cliff.

The same instinct follows me into development. I learn by moving, notice what feels wrong, adjust, and go again. Preferably faster.

PERSONAL OPERATING SYSTEM

Calm face.
Questionable speed.

I'm drawn to the moment when focus takes over—the slope, the road, the jump, or the product problem that refuses to stay unsolved.

KNOWN PRODUCTION CONSTRAINT

Gluten and I are not on speaking terms.

My friends find this hilarious. Restaurants treat it like a live debugging session. I treat every menu as a threat model.

HOW I BUILD

Across the stack.
Close to the product.

I work where product direction, design, and engineering meet—close enough to shape the idea, and close enough to the code to ship it.

01

Founder

Building MyCFO from zero

Shaping a financial product that turns a complex money picture into calm, useful decisions—from the product direction to the experience and systems behind it.

02

Technical lead

Engineering Fifth Form

Turning a design-led studio into a fast website platform and custom CMS with safe, structured publishing built in.

03

How I work

Owning the whole product loop

Staying close to every stage: defining the problem, building the system, refining the interface, and shipping something real.

OPEN TO GOOD PROBLEMS

Probably gluten-free. Hopefully.

You bring the idea.
I'll bring the curiosity.

Tell me what you're making, fixing, or trying to figure out.
