About the Author
Writer, builder, lifelong learner
I am a product designer and engineer who loves shipping. This blog is my digital garden — raw notes become polished posts that help others build.
Why I Write
To turn tacit knowledge into shared knowledge — so the next builder doesn't start from zero. 5 years at Stripe and Figma, now indie.
My Journey
From engineering intern to design lead, then indie writer. Key moments include first viral post in 2020, 10K subscribers in 2021, and leaving big tech in 2023.
