About
A quick introduction.
UI/UX designer with a background in cybersecurity and front-end development, based in New York.
Philosophy
"Good design should feel inevitable, like it was the only way it could have worked."
How I got here
The pull toward design wasn't boredom with code. It was noticing where my attention actually went. Fixing an API integration or getting a layout to render right felt good, but briefly. The design process, working through why something should look or function a certain way, is where I lost track of time. Looking back, the throughline was already there: security is about how people get fooled or protected, and front-end work is about what experience actually reaches them. I just hadn't named it design yet.
