I take products from a fuzzy idea to shipped reality — designing the UX, architecting the system, and building it fast with AI. Seventeen years across games, training software and FinTech.

What I do for you

Idea → working prototype in days

AI-assisted development turns a rough concept into something you can click, test and show to users or investors — then iterate fast on real feedback.

The whole product, not just a slice

Research, UX, architecture and implementation are one continuous loop in my head, so nothing falls through the gaps between roles.

Senior product judgment

I decide what's worth building, keep it simple and performant, and know when the AI output is actually good — the scarce skill in AI-era software.

Delivery leadership when you need it

Seventeen years of shipping means I can also run the project, coordinate a team and keep the overview of how it all fits together.

Proof of method — live & usable

Wealth Planner

A personal finance app I designed and built solo with AI in ten days — income, expenses (with budgets and sinking funds), savings and investments backed by real market data. See your net worth at a glance, explore it through rich charts, optimize spending and savings, and plan retirement by life expectancy or FIRE / 4% withdrawal rate.

How I built it Using Cursor · In 10 days

Built with Vite + Vue — a full FinTech-style product surface, not a toy demo. AI gets you to working screens quickly, but the hard part is domain logic: market data integration, optimization models, retirement projections and charts that actually help decisions. That product judgment — knowing what to build, what to simplify and when the output is trustworthy — is what turns a prototype into something you'd use every day.

Proof of method — live & playable

Games Portal

A web-games portal I designed and built solo with AI, to show how fast I can ship polished, fast, browser-based software. Every game is a small demonstration of UX, performance and finish. Click any of them — they're live.

How I built it Using Cursor · In three days

Built with a modern stack — Vite + Vue, with Pixi.js for rendering. The first AI iterations are functional fast and cover a lot of ground, but that's the easy 80%. The value is in the last 20%: detailed, technically sound prompting to get real UX polish, and optimization so every game runs smoothly at high performance on desktop, tablet and mobile alike. That judgment about what "good" means — and how to steer AI toward it — is the part that doesn't come for free.
