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.

Survival: rent, utilities, food, transit Important: insurance, debt, medical No subscriptions. $4.99 one time. Your data stays on your device.
