STORY
I started my career in psychotherapy, where I spent eight years learning how to navigate complexity — reading patterns, understanding people, and turning abstract needs into clear, actionable solutions.
When I moved into tech, I brought that same mindset into my work as a designer, builder, and programmer. My projects blend full-stack engineering with human insight, creating experiences that aren’t just functional but intentional, engaging, and thought‑provoking.
This design ethos has informed each project I've developed. My portfolio is filled with compelling AI‑powered web apps designed to delight, surprise, and engage users.
