Designing at
the edge of
what's possible

A small portfolio of AI experiments built by a UI director who runs ultras, paints, and believes software should feel like it was made by a person.

Bonk

An AI sports nutritionist that reads your Strava workouts and tells you whether you've eaten enough — or too much — for what your body actually did. Built by an ultra runner who's felt both ends.

The Refiner

Extract a living style guide from any product. Built for scale-ups drowning in design debt. Outputs always render in the brand's own extracted colors — never generic, never a template.

Strava Dashboard

A personal running analytics platform that connects to Strava and uses Claude to generate coaching insights and training plans. Heatmaps, pace trends, race countdowns — built by someone who actually uses it.

Figma Digest

A local dashboard that audits your Figma design system — detects naming inconsistencies, tracks component versions, and generates recommendations. No AI fluff, just rules that catch what humans miss.

Bonk

A nutrition coach that understands training load. Reads your Strava, knows your week, adjusts intake targets. Not a calorie counter — a thinking partner.
