Designer. Builder. Founder.

About

Product designer and founder based in the DMV. I've spent 10+ years designing for complex environments: policy, health education, enterprise SaaS, and now I build constraint-driven iOS apps and run Articulate Digital, a product and systems design studio. My work starts with one question: what should actually exist here? Everything I build follows from that. Survival Budget and StreakFocus are both on the App Store.
