I research, code, and iterate fast to design products people can’t live without.
I'm an interaction designer who builds what I design in code, taking products end to end from research to working, tested interfaces. I prototype quickly with AI, which lets me validate ideas early and iterate on real interactions.
I've run research for Google, Amazon, and Microsoft through the agency Mindswarms, shaped product and strategy at Zelig through a $15M Series A, and now design and build Analogical Engines, an AI tool that breaks R&D teams out of fixation. I work across research, engineering, and product, and I'm at my best coordinating the moving parts of a complex problem and keeping a team aligned on what matters most.
I think the hard part of AI has shifted from the model to the interface: how people direct it, trust it, and stay in control as it takes on more. What I want to build next is the interaction layer that turns frontier models into products people actually understand and rely on.
