Ship before you generalize
Build the messy v1 with real users, then extract patterns. IRIS V3's DS started as five operator screens — not a token table.

Approach
How I work.
Four principles I actually use. Each one maps to a project on this site.
02
Design for the operator
Industrial software lives under PPE and time pressure. Color, hierarchy, and feedback are tuned for worst lighting — not the marketing shot.
NETZSCH HMIs
03
Own the full stack
I move from design to React to deploy when it's faster. Nerida shipped solo, end-to-end, with Claude Code as build partner.

04
AI for the boring parts
LLMs handle scaffolding, schema mapping, copy drafts, and scripts. Taste, decisions, and the system itself stay mine.

Gabriel is the classic problem-solver. We worked together twice, and I always saw him as collaborative, with well-crafted, proactive solutions. His strength as a UX designer is in the ideation and prototyping moments.
