I design AI products.
Then I write the code that ships them.

I'm a UX/UI engineer focused on AI products. The research, the design, the React that ends up in production. Same person, start to finish.

Selected work

Six products. Designed, built, shipped.

2025–2026 Luxury e-commerce

Logan Hollowell: Fine-Jewelry Storefront

A brand of one-of-a-kind, made-to-order pieces on a storefront that sold them like a generic catalog and wasn't built to be used by everyone. The design team reimagined the journey, and my job was to build it real on Shopify, keep it accessible, and not let the platform flatten it back into a grid.

2025 Accessibility tooling

CloverX a11y: WCAG 2.2 Accessibility Platform

Free accessibility scanners miss what actually fails in production, and paid tools start at $500 a month while still burying the fix 14 clicks deep. Then WCAG 2.2 landed and most tools hadn't caught up.

2024 EdTech

BrainTech: Teen Tech Education Platform

The original product leaned on corporate patterns, muted colors, and adult information density, so teens were quietly checking out. It had been built for the parent paying rather than the kid actually using it.


About

I design products.
Then I build them.
Most people only do one.

On most teams, designers hand work off to developers. Developers then rebuild what they got, and what actually ships rarely matches what was designed. I do both jobs myself, so the design that ships is the same one I drew.

Let's build something together.

I'm open to full-time roles, contract work, and advisory engagements. I'm especially interested in early-stage AI products and SaaS platforms, where the design and the engineering have to overlap.
