Find the perfect apartment for you.
Apartment hunting is stressful and overwhelming. I designed this app to reimagine the process, making it smoother, clearer, and more user-friendly. What began as a personal challenge evolved into a solution for a problem many renters face.

About me
Senior Product Designer with 6+ years of experience at R2Net (@James Allen, @Blue Nile)
Current role
I turn complex ideas into intuitive interfaces: shipping scalable design systems, streamlining back-office workflows, and closing the loop with research. I obsess over details: typography, micro-interactions, and a consistent visual language. I create interfaces that make complex workflows feel straightforward.
What I actually do
Away from my screen, I'm trying to keep my Monsteras alive, testing recipes (results vary), and fighting for last place in my Pilates lesson as if my life depended on it.

Let's create experiences that win hearts and move metrics. If you're building something meaningful, I'd love to help.
