Chapter 01 · The shape of it
Designer who ships production code.
Four years designing and shipping B2B platforms and consumer products end-to-end. Currently the sole designer at Canadawide Scientific — owned a 0→1 e-commerce redesign from research through engineering handoff, built the design system, and operate without a PM. The computer-science background shows up where it counts: tokens that map to variables, components specced like APIs, fewer revisions per ticket.
