Saxophone
I play the saxophone. It's the one thing in my life that has nothing to do with screens, and that's exactly why I love it.
Five years designing AI and SaaS products at startups that move fast. I care about clean layouts and I document obsessively. Both have a way of paying off later.
* ask my engineers,





I landed my first real role at Groflex, a German startup. Spent five months on the WebApp team alongside two other designers which became my first taste of actual product work, with actual deadlines.
After that, I joined Approvam as their only designer. Just me. I figured it out, delivered, and learned more in that stretch than any course could teach.
Then I joined Dexla. UK-based startup. They brought me in to lead the redesign of their low-code app builder into a fully no-code AI product. That project stretched me in ways I didn't expect, leading design across multiple teams, keeping documentation tight, communicating with people who thought very differently from me. It's also what pulled me into the AI space.
Now I'm at Airstride, and honestly, it's the most I've ever grown in a role. I came in to design version 2 of the product, specifically Carmen, an AI agent that helps vendors find and acquire partners without the usual headaches. The role kept growing. I ended up owning the website redesign too, and diving into SEO. Before I knew it, I was in everything. It worked. The website redesign drove an 84% jump in conversions. I'm not just designing here, I'm building.
I play the saxophone. It's the one thing in my life that has nothing to do with screens, and that's exactly why I love it.
I shoot video for my church media crew. Different kind of storytelling, same obsession with getting the details right.
I play chess. Probably why I think five steps ahead in design. Or maybe I just like the game. Either way.
Tools are tools. The thinking is what ships.
That said, here is what is on my desk.
Got a project? Or just want to talk design, chess, or debate FPL transfers? I'm always open to a conversation.
