curious by default.
precise by choice.
i turn small frictions into tools people can actually live with.
my projects usually begin with a small friction: a tool that asks too much, information that disappears, or an idea that deserves a tangible form.
i take those frictions from sketch to working product—shaping the interface, writing the code, and paying attention to what happens after launch.
