Design engineer / Staff software engineer / AI product builder

I build useful products.

I turn fuzzy workflows into production tools that help people create, decide, and ship with confidence.

13+ years building creative tools, design systems, and production software.

I designed this interactive demo to show editable AI-assisted work from first direction through human review.

Recent work

I build AI-assisted creative tools that stay reviewable.

At Epsilon, I help turn complex creative workflows into web-based tools that keep generated work understandable, editable and ready for human review.

Creative production tools

I lead technical architecture and hands-on engineering across various AI interaction models, canvas and state architecture, synchronized static and motion formats, human review and evaluation loops.

Built with product, creative, design, ML and engineering partners.

Designed AI-assisted interaction patterns that keep people close to important decisions.
Built Complex visual editing and state foundations for static and motion work.
Made visible Human review and evaluation states that help people understand changes and catch problems.

How I contribute

I make the work easier to carry forward.

I contribute by shaping the product, building the shared foundation, and helping other people extend the work without losing its intent.

Shape the product

Lead architecture and design AI-assisted interaction patterns, then carry that thinking through hands-on implementation.

Build shared foundations

As one of Epsilon's founding UX engineers, I helped establish the discipline and grow Core UI into a company-wide design system with accessible defaults and shared contribution practices.

Help others extend it

Mentor engineers and align product, creative, design, ML, and engineering partners around decisions the team can build on.
