About
I design player-first systems and UI flows that feel intuitive. From rapid prototyping to shipping, I build experiences that resonate.
I approach game design as a blend of systems thinking and player empathy. Whether balancing an economy for thousands of players or crafting seamless UI flows, I build things that work well and feel good to use.
