Hi! I’m Joseph. A UX Designer and Software Engineer in Portland, OR.

I craft meaningful, human-centered user experiences by blending UX design with software development. With a passion for creating engaging, accessible, and innovative interfaces, I excel at turning research and empathy into practical solutions that delight users.

My expertise spans designing and building responsive, interactive applications, leveraging technologies like React, JavaScript, and modern design systems. Having worked in the B2B space and for a Fortune 500 software company, I understand how to translate complex ideas into seamless digital experiences.

I thrive on collaboration, continuous learning, and exploring the intersection of design, technology, and storytelling. Outside of work, I enjoy woodworking, cooking, and creating music.
