About
I help scale-ups create high quality prototypes to win deals. My role has transformed—I now orchestrate AI tools to multiply output and deliver 10× the impact.

Earlier work
SEEK and Best Practice
The MVP Missed. So We Fixed the Funnel.
We shipped a courses module on SEEK's Career Advice pages and the numbers came back short. Three small fixes, one for each leak in the funnel, took conversion from 9% to 20%.
Booking an Appointment in Two Panels
Booking an appointment was slow and frustrating for receptionists. A two-panel dialog made it readable at a glance, and gave Best Practice a pattern for workflows that hadn't been designed yet.
Essays
Agentic user testing
Removing the friction of setting up user tests, and getting results you can trust when you design in HTML, not Figma.
You Can Conjure Your Own Tools Now
In Figma, you waited for someone to ship the feature. With AI code tools, you build the creative tool you need in the moment you need it.
The GUI Has to Earn Its Place
I used to accept GUIs as the default. Now, if a chat interface could do it faster, the GUI feels like friction.
How I Handle Conflict
Disagreements aren't problems to avoid—they're opportunities to learn. Here's how I turn product debates into experiments.
The Future is Now
AI has fundamentally changed how designers produce their work. This is my journey from Figma to shipping real code.
Small studies
For the curious
Two Levels of Settings Without Getting Lost
People couldn't set up the AI in their own apps. We grouped the parts into features, then fixed the confusion between workspace settings and app settings with two moves: swapped colours and a dialog.
Showing AI What to Look For
People setting up AI document review didn't know what a rule was. So I drew the document, lit up what each rule checks, and built a state machine to review every state with the team.
