Frontend Engineer crafting delightful web experiences

Based in San Francisco. Currently building design systems at Stripe. Passionate about accessibility, performance, and beautiful interfaces.

About me

I'm a frontend engineer with 6 years of experience building web applications. I specialize in React, TypeScript, and design systems. My work focuses on creating interfaces that are not only beautiful but also accessible and performant.

Before Stripe, I worked at Figma where I helped build the web editor and contributed to their component library. I studied Computer Science at UC Berkeley and fell in love with the intersection of design and engineering.
