A Few More Things
✨ Architect of digital realms
Just like an architect helps define both structure and aesthetics, I’ve learned the skills needed to give structure and beauty to digital experiences! My passion is in mobile experiences (especially Android and open source) and I believe that the best way to define an experience is to simplify it down to its core.
🧙♂️ How I perform design magic
I focus on asking questions and sharing visual assets to communicate what’s in my mind and to understand other people’s ideas and perspectives. I’ve noticed that even if the visual isn’t what people want, it still helps move the conversation along to identify what the possibilities we do want are. As our shared understanding and vision materialize, all the pieces we gathered begin to fit together to form something beautiful.
🧿 The ultimate design experience
I’m really passionate about how my life is the ultimate design experience. I’m always looking for ways to keep evolving, creating systems and breaking them, and challenging my current ideas, beliefs, behaviors, and more.
