I work on enterprise platforms that handle millions in assets. I build open source libraries that solve real problems. I craft browser extensions used by thousands. I write original articles that get shared.

I started out in Animation and Flash, which taught me how things should feel. I've spent 10 years building web applications, which taught me how things should work.
Now I combine both to create eye-catching and satisfying experiences:
I work in the Vue ecosystem with Nuxt, TypeScript, and complimentary technologies.
Right now I specialise in UI architecture, component libraries, and design systems – but I'm just as comfortable working across the full application stack.
I'm available for contract work or permanent roles where I get to work across design, product, and engineering.
Let's start a conversation !
