about

With seven years of work experience, I designed iOS mobile app features, created an emergency instant messaging platform, added features to a legacy customer support application, and developed quality assurance applications for vehicle manufacturing plants.

I believe a good product is a summation of little things done well. That's why I enjoy collaborating at every part of the product stack. I love crafting a research plan with UX Researchers, strategizing with Product Managers, ideating with Designers, or even architecting with Developers.

Outside of work I am a:

🕹️ Tetris player (I once played against 20 people at the same time and won)

👨‍🍳 Amateur cook (my pho recipe is in a department's cookbook)

⌨️ Keyboard hobbyist (check out my products below)
