Problems I love to solve
-
Code Quality
“Code review isn’t control to me, it’s a safety net. I stick to agreed conventions, write smaller and more readable functions, and leave clear PR messages. The result is always fewer surprises, fewer bugs, and faster deliveries.”
-
Organizational Efficiency
“Standards save both nerves and time. I rely on a starter theme and a vetted set of components to keep everything on track. Less debate over existing standards, more focus on outcomes.”
-
UX Micro-animations
“The first impression matters most. Sometimes it’s hard to turn that initial picture in my head into a solution that feels natural and works smoothly.”
-
Productivity
“Lately I’ve been working on organizing my time, tasks, and priorities. I know I have room to improve there, so I continually iterate on my processes because that’s the key to productivity.”
"The most common mistake companies make is thinking of a website as a one-time project."
Many build it, launch it, and stop there. But a website is a living thing that grows with the company, evolves with its goals, and becomes the central hub of your communication. What matters isn’t just building the site but setting it up so it’s easy to maintain, tailored to the user, and able to serve as the foundation for all your other marketing activities.
