What I've been up to:

At Tribus, a significant part of my role involves product design for our startup clients. I've previously acted as the sole designer for two B2B SaaS startups, taking those projects from initial concepts to final handoff. My responsibilities cover the full design lifecycle, including user research, information architecture, UI, prototyping, and preparing developer-ready files for these product-focused projects. I love 0 to 1 design. Taking a founder’s rough idea and turning it into something real and usable is the best part of the job.
