I write about the intersection of design, technology, and human experience. My work explores how we create meaning in an increasingly digital world.
Background
Currently, I work as a [Your Role] at [Company], where I focus on creating thoughtful digital experiences that prioritize human needs over technological complexity. Previously, I've worked with organizations ranging from early-stage startups to established institutions, always with an eye toward crafting solutions that feel both innovative and timeless.
My approach to both work and writing is grounded in curiosity. I believe that the best insights come from careful observation of the world around us—from the way light falls across a cafe table to the subtle interactions that make or break a digital interface.
Philosophy
I'm drawn to the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi—finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence. This philosophy influences both my design work and my writing, leading me to value authenticity over polish, process over perfection.
These essays are my attempt to slow down and examine the ideas, experiences, and observations that shape our daily lives. Each piece is an invitation to pause, reflect, and perhaps see familiar things in a new light.
Beyond Writing
When I'm not writing or designing, you'll find me exploring the hiking trails around the Bay Area, experimenting with analog photography, or reading in one of San Francisco's many cafes. I'm particularly interested in books about design history, cultural criticism, and the philosophy of technology.
I collect vintage design magazines, maintain a small garden of succulents, and am perpetually working on perfecting my coffee brewing technique. These seemingly small pursuits often provide the seeds for larger ideas that eventually find their way into my writing.
