Site Architecture + Dev
2024

As part of the Brains on Fire team, I helped migrate and optimize 5,000+ pages from WordPress to Webflow—preserving structure and modernizing the site.

I believe in the power of design to tell stories, solve problems, and connect with hearts and minds.

about me

For the past 6 years, I've been exploring the dynamic intersection of design, development, and digital marketing. I work closely with CMOs, Creative Directors, and startup founders, creating visually appealing and intuitive digital experiences with interactions that add real value.

When I’m not working, you’ll probably find me at the beach, an aerial studio, a flea market, or digging through records. Currently obsessing over: Midjourney, creative coding, and custom lettering.
