UX-Led Front-End.

Front-end work where the interface earns its keep — clarity first, conversion second, speed and accessibility built-in. I design and ship across web and mobile in the same engagement.

// directions I design inSix visual systems I keep on the shelf — pick the one that fits your product.

Each direction is a concept frame — original mocks I designed to show the flavor of work I’d ship for a real engagement. Copy and brand are illustrative. The web and mobile renderings are paired so you can see how the system translates across both surfaces.

CONCEPT
// included

What's included.

  • +Visual system: typography, color, spacing, motion
  • +Component library tuned to your stack (Tailwind / Radix / shadcn)
  • +Responsive layouts for web and mobile (PWA or native-feel)
  • +Conversion-tuned key pages: landing, product, checkout, dashboard
  • +Accessibility audit (WCAG 2.2 AA targets)
  • +Lighthouse, Core Web Vitals, and design-system handoff docs
// outcomes

What you can expect.

  • ▶An interface that picks an opinion and commits to it
  • ▶Lower bounce, higher completion, fewer support tickets
  • ▶A design system your future hires can extend without breaking
// process

How an engagement runs.

01
Audit

Heuristic + analytics review. We pick the three pages that matter and the one axis we'll win on (speed, clarity, taste).

02
Direction

I propose two visual directions with real components, not mood boards. We pick one and lock it in a week.

03
Build

Production code, not Figma. Web and mobile shipped in lockstep with one component library.

04
Polish

Motion, copy, micro-interactions, dark mode, accessibility passes. The bits that make it feel finished.

// best fit

Best for.

  • ◇Products with traction whose interface no longer matches the brand
  • ◇Founders who want one taste-maker on web AND mobile, not a relay
  • ◇Teams whose conversion is leaking on the front-end
// pricing

Engagement & pricing.

Single-page redesign: 2–3 weeks. Full product surface: 6–10 weeks. Fixed scope, fixed price.

Default stack
  • Next.js
  • Tailwind CSS
  • Radix UI / shadcn
  • Motion
  • TypeScript
  • Figma (sparingly)
