About
I’m a Product Designer with a background in technical drafting and systems-driven design. I design for scalability, precision, and developer feasibility. I help early-stage startups ship 0-to-1 MVPs. Highlights include Glowva: AI chat interfaces for parent support; Find Me: scalable design system across 5 responsive breakpoints; Nkomor: high-density dashboards for healthcare professionals. I bridge complex technical requirements and intuitive UI to ensure what I design is built.
