I'm a frontend lead with a UI/UX design background, sitting at the intersection of two disciplines most people only know one of. I understand what a designer is trying to achieve — the hierarchy, micro-interactions, and the intent behind spacing — and I write the code that brings it to life without losing anything in translation. I’ve led frontend delivery across React, TypeScript, and production apps for clients including Atlassian, NAB Trade, and Australian Government, building component libraries, design systems, and polished user experiences.…I'm a frontend lead with a UI/UX design background, sitting at the intersection of two disciplines most people only know one of.

Owned the full design-to-code pipeline from wireframes and high-fidelity Figma prototypes through to pixel-perfect, WCAG-compliant implementations. Built reusable component libraries and front-end patterns adopted across project teams, reducing duplication and ensuring visual consistency at scale. Prototyped and shipped interactive experiences that bridged design intent with production reality — collaborating directly with designers, PMs, and engineers.

Built long-term client relationships and structured engagement spanning design systems, interactive prototypes, and full production apps. Cultivated a design-led engineering culture by hiring and mentoring designers who code and care about design quality.
