Hello! Tell us a bit about yourself

I’m a Product Designer at BOLD where I focus on designing and improving web apps that help people create and optimise their resumes.

One of our leading platforms is myperfectresume.com, which you can try.

Since I was young, I’ve had a passion for creativity and building things, possibly influenced by my love for LEGO.

In college, I studied Graphic Design and Industrial Design. Even in college, I began my career as a freelance graphic designer, working on branding projects and advertising for agencies.

In 2015, I transitioned to UX design and have loved it ever since.

In addition to my day job, I enjoy tinkering with my personal website, where I write blog posts about tech, LEGO, and Apple.

I also create digital productivity assets, such as an icon pack for the Stream Deck and a Notion subscription-manager to help people manage their apps and services.

You can stay updated with my blog through the newsletter or RSS feed, and follow me on Mastodon, Threads, or Twitter.

I live in a three-bedroom apartment with my wife and our adorable dog, Max.

Luckily, I have a dedicated room for my home office.

Over the past three years of working remotely, I’ve made minor improvements to create the space it is today.
