available for new projectsHow I build
Accessibility first
Semantic markup and keyboard parity of course, but I'm also a neurodivergence advocate so a page that's easy on the brain is vital.
Clarity is Core
Defining the problem well before starting solutions to save product teams unnecessary changes.
Design systems
Tokens, primitives, and documented patterns that scale across teams and products.
Performance discipline
Doing it right the first time saves the most time. Proper testing up front creates the best experience before and after deployment.
