Jauntin’
Designing of a life-changing service. BCx Health & Wellness Services, such as talking to a doctor and getting necessary prescriptions for gig workers.
Fight Pandemics
FightPandemics is a web and mobile app helping those affected by COVID-19 get the support they need.
Mission objectives:
DESIGN from DATA-DRIVEN DECISIONS
Making product decisions from a standpoint of “this testing shows 19% better conversions” rather than “this looks visually appealing.”
COMMUNICATE FLUIDLY
Before working in design I come from a background in front-end development. This means we can work together, faster, using a common vocabulary in cross-functional teams, to build products people love.
THE USER COMES FIRST
Bottom line. Product represents value delivered, nothing else.
MEET/EXCEED BUSINESS NEEDS
Good designers know the business needs and the user’s needs. Good products meet somewhere in the middle to be beneficial to everyone.

Additional achievements
Overlyvisual Wallpapers
Native Mac App I designed and developed.
This is an app I created from scratch, with the help of AI tools such as Github Copilot and GPT, and got fully functioning, and published to the App Store for Mac. Towards the end, I hired a developer for assistance on packaging the app in a .pkg file for App Store acceptance.

I hope you had half as much fun browsing through this site as I had making it. I feel that so many portfolios look the same, with a bland “Squarespace”-ey feel, and I wanted to explore something more creative visually.
If you have a Design job coming up I could be a good fit for, please send me a message.
