About

Most people would say work smarter, not harder, and to that I say, why not work smarter and harder? From competing at state level in a mechatronics event in middle school, to using Python for an HVAC internship, to recently graduating from NC State University with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, I am excited to start a new career in the engineering field.

A UX lesson from designing permissions in B2B SaaS

I ve been working on permission and role management for a B2B AI product.

One thing that makes this tricky is that a user s role doesn t always tell you what they should be able to do.

For example, someone might manage a project without managing the entire workspace. They need control over their project s settings and members, but that doesn t necessarily mean they should have access to organization-wide settings.

This creates an interesting UX problem.

Would you try an app before creating an account?

A friend sends you an app that might solve one small problem. You open it and the first screen asks you to create an account before you can see what it does. Some apps need an account to save work or sync; for a quick evaluation, that s a real ask.

As someone building Inquir Compute, I m curious about that first step. The difference may be whether you reach a useful moment before sharing an email, or whether signing up is itself part of getting value.

How do you keep AI from changing parts of the UI you didn’t ask it to touch?

One thing I find tricky about vibe coding as a product designer is keeping changes focused.

Let s say I want to adjust a specific interaction or improve one part of a screen.

AI might make the requested change, but also modify the layout, spacing, or components around it.

The result isn t necessarily worse. Sometimes it even looks better.
