One hire, two disciplines
I don't hand off. I design the flow, then write the production code that makes it real — React, TypeScript, the whole surface. You get a designer and a frontend engineer in one seat.
Hire the onewho designs itand ships itOne seat. Both disciplines.
I’m a UX Engineer at Google Meet who refuses to split the journey from the build. Nine years, two Google teams, eleven products of my own.
Most days that’s Meet at scale. Most nights it’s a product of my own, with nobody else to hand the hard part to.
— Pointed next
Early AI teams building where the Bay moves fastest — and they need someone to design and ship the first version.
I run remote from Durham by default. For a team worth betting on, a plane ticket west isn’t a dealbreaker.

Eleven products shipped — founder bets, live tools, experiments. I go from a rough idea to something real and in front of users fast.
Craft that holds at scale
Three years on Google Meet shaping UI/UX used by millions, plus a +60% UI performance lift.
A founder's instinct
I've built and run my own products, so I think in outcomes, not tickets. I'll question the spec, own the ambiguity, and care about the thing like it's mine.founder energy.
