UX ENGINEER | VETERAN | CHARLOTTE, NC

I combine modern technology with exceptional design to create websites

MY WORK

walnut lawn

Designed and built a custom lawn care website in three weeks using Astro and Keystatic CMS. I led the full process—from user discovery and wireframes to high‑fidelity design in Figma and final development. The site helps the client generate leads, showcase their work, and manage content independently through a headless CMS.

UX Design Portfolio

A personal portfolio built in two weeks to showcase my UX/UI design skills. I led the full double‑diamond cycle—defining user (employer) needs, iterating on wireframes, designing in Figma, and developing with Astro and Shadcn. The site landed me a customer interface specialist role, demonstrating my front end and content management skills

Lucky Guy Brewing

A custom e‑commerce website for a craft brewery, designed and developed in two weeks. As a customer interface specialist, I handled the entire process—from understanding the need to advertise and sell beer online, to creating high‑fidelity designs in Figma, and building the site with Gatsby, Contentful CMS, and Snipcart. The result is a fast, content‑managed site that lets the brewery showcase their beers and handle sales seamlessly.

ABOUT ME

I'm an Army veteran and UX Engineer who specializes in designing clean, minimalist interfaces in Figma and implementing them with modern tools like Astro, Next.js, and headless CMSs. My dual background allows me to guide projects from concept to completion, ensuring every detail is considered. I'm seeking a role at an innovative agency where I can apply these end-to-end skills. Outside of work, I'm dedicated to family and friends, and you can also find me playing drums, producing, or DJing underground electronic music.
