I design and ship production software — minimal interfaces backed by solid engineering. Currently building browser-based tools that keep data local and private.

Engineering with
design discipline.

I'm a software engineer with a design background. I build for the web — production interfaces that are fast, accessible, and deliberately simple. My work sits at the intersection of frontend engineering and product design.

I believe most software ships with too much surface area. Too many features competing for attention, too much visual noise, too much friction between the user and the task. The products I build push in the other direction: fewer things, done properly, with attention paid to every interaction and edge case.

Right now I'm building browser-based productivity tools that keep user data local and private. No accounts, no cloud dependencies, no subscriptions — just software that works.
