About Me

Designing with purpose and code.

Hi, I'm John, a multidisciplinary designer and developer based in San Francisco. With over 8 years of experience, I blend creative visuals with robust code to build seamless digital experiences.

My journey started in graphic design, but my curiosity for how things work led me into the world of full-stack development. I believe that great design is not just about how it looks, but how it works.

When I'm not pushing pixels or writing clean functions, you can find me exploring local coffee shops, hiking the trails of the Bay Area, or contributing to open-source projects.
