I build interfaces for complex, evolving systems.
Product design, software prototyping, local automation, and research tools—brought together as focused, usable experiences.

Selected work / 01
Two flagship systems for reading complex change.
Energy makes physiology legible over time. Inquiry connects a research interface to local retrieval, model reasoning, and saved investigation records.
Live application
Energy Engine
A personal physiology observatory for understanding energy, recovery, rhythm, and change without collapsing them into a single number.
- Purpose
- Make a changing physiological state easier to read
- Actions
- Inspect signals, add observations, follow patterns, manage local data
- Quality
- Calm empty states and clear boundaries between manual and connected data
Local-first system
Inquiry Engine
A reasoning cockpit for asking a question, choosing how memory may participate, inspecting source traces, and keeping the result as an investigation.
- Interface
- Modes, knowledge policy, scope controls, evidence, and trace views
- Engine
- FastAPI, Chroma retrieval, Ollama processing, and explicit fallback rules
- Record
- SQLite-backed investigations with reports, versions, and parent references

Language, perception, simulation, and sight.
Each project has its own interaction model and visual identity, shaped around the subject rather than a shared product template.

Photogression
A field journal organized around thirteen ways of seeing, turning photography into a repeatable practice of attention.

Dense systems translated into navigation, language, and visual structure that people can understand and use.
About / 04
Designing the interface and the system behind it.
I work across software, interaction design, automation, and experimental systems modeling. The common thread is turning layered concepts into concrete interfaces people can understand, question, and use.
I’m especially interested in products that support attention: noticing a physiological shift, following a word through history, seeing a photograph differently, or learning through direct manipulation.
