My Core Values

🚀

Bias Toward Action

Perfect is the enemy of good. I believe in building quickly, failing forward, and letting real-world feedback guide the next iteration.

🤝

Delightfully Functional

Good design solves problems. Great design makes people smile while doing it. I build experiences that are both elegant and effective.

📚

Compounding Growth

Small improvements compound into breakthroughs. I stay relentlessly curious, learn in public, and treat every project as a chance to level up.

Interests

🎨 Creative Outlets
