About
Product designer, with occasional branding work for clients. I started out as a digital artist, took up graphic design in 2018 and moved into product in 2022. What I like about the work is the daily problem of balancing user needs against business goals — and the opportunity to keep trying.

What I believe
Three things I keep coming back to.
Along the way
People I've looked up to.
Over the years I've looked up to a lot of people who shaped how I work and how I think. In no particular order, and always changing.
Snaps
Mostly clouds, rain and the moon.
Photographs from my phone over the years.
