Senior Product Designer with 7+ years designing platforms used by 1,000+ users at Microsoft and Mercedes-Benz. I design with engineering fluency, and ship with it too.
I come from a blend of engineering and design: Master's in Design, Bachelor's in Engineering. That foundation always gave me fluency across both disciplines.
As AI collapses the boundary between design and engineering, I use it on both sides: to design faster and sharper, and to ship what I build. From AI-assisted research synthesis to vibe-coding production-ready interfaces, I take products from discovery to deployment.
The principles don't change: good research, sound IA, accessible and intentional design. AI accelerates the craft. It doesn't replace it.

I come from farming ancestry, grew up around mango orchards and fig trees, climbing them before I could read. That upbringing never left me. I tend to my garden the same way now: slowly, patiently, with genuine care. I grow my own produce and cook with it, different cuisines, whatever's in season. There's something satisfying about following something all the way through, from soil to plate.
I write about LLMs and product design, the shifting role of the designer in an AI-shaped world. Some thoughts are half-formed. All are honest.
I climb mountains. Not metaphorically. It's uncomfortable and clarifying in equal measure.
