MY JOURNEY

I started my career as a UI/UX designer for a series of early-stage startups, where I learned the hard way that beautiful interfaces don't matter if the product doesn't solve a real problem. After burning out on the 9-to-5 grind, I transitioned to building my own digital products and writing about the process.

WHAT I DO NOW

Today, I run a weekly newsletter called *The Bulletin*, where I share insights on modern web design, creator economics, and the tools I use to build my business. When I'm not writing, I'm building minimalist Framer templates or experimenting with new AI tools.

THE MISSION

My goal is simple: to help creators and founders build better digital products without getting bogged down by complexity. I believe in ruthless minimalism, fast execution, and owning your distribution.
