How I work

Twenty years of knowing what to build. A much faster way to build it.

The judgment comes from leading product design at Adobe and Walmart. What’s changed is the process. AI lets me move between strategy, design, and engineering without the traditional handoffs, so more of my time goes to making, testing, and learning.

Tinkering is how I think.

Small products I design and build end to end. Each one teaches me something I couldn’t have learned on paper.

  • Project 01

    Words Travel

    An interactive globe tracing how words change as they travel across cultures and time. A small collection of familiar words becomes a way to explore how language carries traces of the places it’s been.

I built a version of my website for machines. Raft Design now has a human/AI toggle. One side is the site you'd expect. The other is a terminal version, as if a machine were reading it out loud.

The journeys hiding inside everyday words
The journeys hiding inside everyday words

Reading Babel by R. F. Kuang sparked an interest in etymology. That curiosity became Words Travel, an app that traces familiar words across an interactive globe. I share how I went from looking up word origins to designing and building the experience with Figma and Codex.

The AI-Native Designer Was Only Phase One
The AI-Native Designer Was Only Phase One

A team of faster designers can be a slower team. We spent the past year obsessed with getting individual designers faster with AI. Fair enough, most of us figured that out. But make seven designers faster and you don't get a faster team. You get seven private workflows, seven definitions of done, and a coordination problem nobody's talking about.
