Story
Aspen, Colorado · 2025
I love to build. Tools that solve real problems, experiences that carry a little emotional weight. The work I keep coming back to is the kind that actually changes how someone moves through their day.
Right now I'm actively using vibe-coding tools to prototype and ship my own products. Less polishing portfolio pieces, more making things people can actually pick up and use.

How I Work
Start close to people.
I start close to people, then move fast toward something testable. I get past the polite “sounds good” feedback into what’s actually hard: the constraints, the tradeoffs, the moments where people hesitate or lose confidence, and turn that into a clear problem framing and a few sharp bets.
Prototype to learn.
Then I prototype quickly, not because research is optional, but because prototypes make learning cheaper. Vibe-coding tools have made this even faster, the cost of trying something and seeing a real result is much lower, so I iterate more and align with stakeholders earlier.
Polish last, on purpose.
I don’t perfect the UI at the start. I’d rather answer the real questions first: is this the right problem, does the flow hold up, what breaks at the edges. Once the direction is right, I slow down, tightening the system, polishing interactions, making the UI feel intentional and reliable.
Move fast to gain clarity, then refine with craft.
