Design Engineer
I design and build software, leading Lumanu's payments platform from concept to production code.
Fintech and real estate products, designed and coded end to end.
Payments Platform
2023 to Now
Lumanu is a fintech that processes payments and handles tax compliance for brands paying creators. I redesigned the app from the ground up and personally coded 90% of it.
Real Estate Platform
2020 to 2022
SkySlope builds real estate transaction software. I improved the UX across DigiSign, Forms, and Breeze, and led Breeze's design from concept through launch.
Grief Support App
2022 to 2023
I led product design for an app built to support individuals through loss and end of life planning. My focus was simplifying onboarding, driving engagement, and building a scalable design foundation.
Real Estate Form Streamlining
2021
I streamlined the PEAD form so real estate agents could stay focused on clients during the pandemic. Built and launched as a standalone web app in one quarter.
Craft
I cut to the key problem and the business goal behind it, then design only what serves both.
Systems
I align the design system and codebase so handoff is clean and the work is ready for AI tools.
Design & code
I design a scalable system and ship it in React, Next.js, and TypeScript. I build features and use AI to prototype and optimize.
I'm a design engineer at Lumanu in San Francisco, working across Product, Engineering, and Marketing to create, design, and ship product features.
I studied Digital Media and Economics at UC Davis, and started out designing and developing websites for clients.
I'm currently working on side projects like Glizzy. Outside of work I love to cook, write and play music, run, and shoot nature photography.
Engineering
Production quality UI in React, TypeScript, and Next.js, with modern HTML and CSS. Design to code with Code Connect and the Figma MCP, plus design tokens, animation, web performance, accessibility, and CI/CD.
Tooling
I build and prototype with AI native, design first tools daily. Cursor, Claude Code, Claude, Figma Make, Figma MCP, Code Connect, Paper, and the Vercel AI SDK.
Design & systems
Figma, prototyping, and motion. Design systems that compound in reusable components, variants, Token Studio, and Storybook.
Product
Taste and judgment on what to build. Product strategy and roadmapping, 0 to 1 through launch, AI assisted prototyping, research, and experimentation.
