Design Logic

Good design isn't about aesthetics — it's about building systems that make the right decision obvious, that scale without breaking, and that any team member can extend with confidence.

Token-First Thinking
Every design decision starts as a token — named, documented, and connected to purpose. Not a hex code, a semantic value.
Component Contracts
Components are interfaces, not visuals. They have clear inputs, predictable outputs, and documented boundaries.
Governance by Default
A system no one can contribute to is a dead system. Process design is part of design system design.

Head of Product Design

I've spent the last decade working at the intersection of design, engineering, and strategy — building the systems that make complex products work at scale.

My focus is Design Systems and Design Logic: the frameworks, tokens, and components that give teams a shared language. I've led design system initiatives at companies ranging from early-stage startups to Fortune 500 enterprises, always with the same north star — make the obvious choice the easy choice.

Before moving into system-level work, I shipped consumer products for brands like BMW, AMD, O2, and E.ON. That product background informs everything I build: systems that serve real teams shipping real products.
