Eight years designing calm, durable software — banking, design systems, and the occasional editorial detour. Currently freelancing from a sunny desk in Alfama.
Led design for a multi-currency banking app used across 14 countries. Card controls, FX without the fear, and a home screen people actually understand.
UI · iOSA component system serving five product teams: 120 components, tokens, and the documentation culture to keep them honest.
SystemsAn editorial side project on design in unglamorous places — ferry terminals, tax forms, hospital wayfinding. 40k readers and counting.
EditorialI care about the parts of software nobody screenshots: empty states, error copy, the second week of use. Good design is what remains after the launch tweet is forgotten.
Outside work: film photography, tiled facades, and a slowly improving backhand.
