How I work
Systems, Scope, Cross-team alignment, Tooling
I tend to work in roles where clarity and alignment matter most, especially when systems, scope, and multiple disciplines intersect.
In team settings, I focus on reducing ambiguity early, helping clarify goals, and shaping systems that are practical to implement and maintain. This often means adjusting scope, refining system boundaries, or reorganizing collaboration as projects move toward production and playtesting.
Outside of production work, I spend time on photography and small design studies.
Working visually helps me think more clearly about structure, hierarchy, and how people read complex systems.
