I don’t just design — I build.

As a UX Engineer, I bridge the gap between high-fidelity design and scalable frontend code. I speak the language of design and master the tools of development to bring interfaces smoothly, performantly, and accessibly to the browser.

In practice, I work right at the intersection where designs are often handed off to development: instead of static images, I deliver production-ready components (e.g., in React or Next.js) and ensure that accessibility and design quality aren’t left behind. For interdisciplinary product teams, this means less "game of telephone" during handoff, faster interactive prototypes, and a final product that works exactly as planned.

Digital product­development in practice

My focus lies in iteratively solving complex UX problems, continuously validating UI components directly in code, and providing long-term support for sustainable product ecosystems.

UX & Frontend Core­Competencies

No design
without context.

I never start with the first pixel. I start by defining the right problem.

01

Discover

User surveys, stakeholder interviews, and desk research. I understand the underlying problem before sketching solutions.

02

Define

User journeys, personas, and information architecture. Absolute clarity on what the product and digital ecosystem need to achieve.

03

Design

Wireframes, interactive prototypes, and design system components. Iteratively validated, testable, and ready for handoff without ambiguity.

04

Deliver

Production-ready frontend code, semantic token architectures, and structured usability testing long after the initial launch.

In a Nutshell

Experience

Almost 20 years at the intersection of design & code.

Continuity

Long-term consistency in deep product domains instead of quick project-hopping.

Reach

Developing UI solutions and frontend architectures used daily by millions of people.
