Off the clock

When I'm not designing.

My chihuahua

Permanent co-worker. Sits on the desk through every design review and never disagrees politely.

Drawing

Sketchbook habit since forever. It's where ideas land before they become Figma frames.

Rock & metal

The soundtrack to deep work. Louder than the meetings, twice as honest.

Baking sweets

Weekend ritual. Precise measurements, slow ovens, immediate feedback — basically design with sugar.

Notes on a practice

I make
things that
refuse to be
forgotten.
