bio

I'm 34 years old man, part of the LGBTQIA+ community and I am on the spectrum. I’m addicted to chargeable devices which can fit in my pocket. I love solving problems and making interfaces easier for the end user. If there's one lesson I take from my years of experience, it is: I don't design for myself.
