Hi everyone, nice to meet you!
Here is a bit about how I work:
Make it Real:
I work fast, super fast, and focus on making ideas real. I create several high-fidelity prototypes or videos, not just static mocks. I like to stay open to different directions and iterate relentlessly without being tied to assumptions.
One Band:
I prefer to be embedded in your team and workflow with a dedicated email, account in your Slack, Linear, GitHub, or any tools you use. One team, one band.
Timezone Flex:
I flex my working hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays to sync with teams in the West Coast, East Coast, or Europe.
Dedicated Point-of-Contact:
I work with only with one team at a time. To move quickly, I prefer my primary point of contact to be the CEO, CTO, or CDO.
My primary focus areas are product discovery, onboarding optimization, and retention. I also help with design hiring and building career ladders. Recently, I’ve been focusing heavily on brand/pitching and streamlining onboarding flows.

I combine the unique expertise of working with tech giants like Google DeepMind and Meta on brand new world-scale problems, to fast and nimble YC-backed startups like Thread. Right now, from Tokyo, I am setting up an agency dedicated to fractional product design and design-engineering services while also building my own bootstrapped products. I bridge the worlds of big tech and startups, Software Development and Design, to create products that enrich lives through simple, thoughtful, and delightful design.
