My design philosophy:

“People don’t want design. They want a beautiful, better life.”

After so many years of experience I realized that good products and websites start and end with people. I understand the needs and challenges of colleagues and users before designing through fast iteration.

Creating and building products is a gentle act between humility and confidence, something I work on every day.
