About

Design Engineer (Product Design + iOS/macOS Dev) with 15 years of experience.
I design scalable systems in Figma and build native Apple apps in Swift/SwiftUI. After years of leading design teams and working as a COO in Web3/FinTech, I founded Solored to ship my own products (DualCam, ZipNDrop).
I specialize in taking products from zero to one — handling everything from user flows and design tokens to TestFlight and App Store releases.
Stack: Product Design, SwiftUI, Swift, Design Systems, AI Workflows.
Portfolio & Apps: solored.app
