My approach to design is deeply rooted in a diverse creative and strategic background—one shaped by years of experience as a composer, coach, and visual artist, and sharpened through study in cognitive psychology and Clausewitzian philosophy.
As a composer, I’ve crafted immersive musical journeys—guiding listeners in real time through emotional and focused states with intentional pacing, harmony, and thematic structure. These experiences mirror the rhythm and flow I aim to design into every user interaction: intuitive, adaptive, and deeply human.
As a coach, I’ve relied on natural cueing and progressive patterning to help individuals acquire complex physical skills with ease and confidence. This has instilled in me a deep appreciation for clarity, feedback loops, and the power of frictionless learning—principles I apply to every digital experience I build.
As a visual artist, my work has centered around engineering perspectives—creating pieces that not only engage but invite introspection and challenge assumptions. I bring that same lens to product design, constructing environments that spark meaningful interaction and encourage thoughtful navigation.
My work is further informed by cognitive psychology, helping me anticipate mental load, shape behavior, and design for clarity and flow. Inspired by Clausewitz’s concepts of friction and synthesis, I thrive in the space where opposing needs collide—seeking not just compromise, but creative transformation.
This portfolio is a reflection of that synthesis: a space where emotion, clarity, utility, and strategy converge to create design that moves, guides, and adapts.
