About

Hey, I'm Andy! I’m a Product Designer with a background in Android Development. I approach problems with system-level thinking, creating design solutions that are both usable and functional. I built a Figma plugin called Simple Stripes (1000+ users) that helps designers create stripe patterns in seconds. I enjoy turning ideas into clear, intuitive experiences, whether through wireframes, prototypes, or design systems. I'm driven by understanding the HOW and WHY behind the products and features we build so I can create thoughtful and scalable solutions. I'm focused on growing as a designer, with long-term goals in design systems and design engineering.
