What’s my battery earning?

Engycell’s batteries store energy for houses, offices and warehouses. Each one sends a flood of data, and my job was turning it into clear pages that answer the simple questions: Is everything OK? How much am I earning? Is anything off?

Making drill repetition engaging

HackMotion makes a sensor you wear on your wrist when you swing a golf club. You do drills, and it tells you live if your wrist is at the right angle. But new tech comes with uncertainty: miss once and many people give up. So we added streaks, a bit of gamification that keeps you going until the drill is done.

Complex creative effects, made fast

What started as a way to teach myself to code in the pre-AI era was a Figma plugin called Splines. It grew into Ruri, a family of plugins for designers, used by many and endorsed by Figma itself. Building my own product led me to think about things I’d never thought about before: strategy, marketing, security, growth and everything in between.

Ubiquiti

2020 – 2024

Senior UX designer

Helped simplify IT

Chances are you’ve connected to Wi-Fi running on Ubiquiti gear a few times today. For four years I designed the tools that manage it. In the app people use to run their networks, my job was making a very technical setup feel simple. When the online store moved off Shopify to a store of its own, I redesigned the whole shopping experience, from browsing to checkout. And on the account everyone signs into, used by 2M people a month, I worked on getting everyone to turn on MFA so their accounts stay safe.
