Hello, I'm a fractional CTO & design systems consultant — working remotely worldwide.

I help teams make sense of frontend chaos — through architecture, process, and clear design systems.
My goal is always the same: clean, scalable, human-friendly code that serves real product needs.
I’m open to working with thoughtful teams anywhere in the world.

Services.
