What I do
I turn people and complex systems into friends –
through research that listens closely, and design that brings happiness
My background
've always been drawn to fixing things – an unbalanced chair, and computer that wouldn't boot, and eventually people themselves. Moving from studying neuroscience, building software code, I realized I wanted the full loop: understanding people's problems, building something that solves it, and seeing people smile.
My approach
People tend to tell you more than they realize – the small hesitations, their workarounds, stuff they don't think to mention. That's what I pay the most attention to.
I build quick and rough prototypes – because you learn a lot more from watching how people react rather than guessing what they'll like
