What I'm up to lately

Looking for interesting work

I'm applying to AI product companies, ideally in physical and mental health, productivity tools, or journaling.

I have 14 years in design, but that number means less than the ability to adapt, and I keep adapting. Looking for a place where I can grow the skills I care about most: AI-first product thinking, business mindset, systems thinking, and refined aesthetics.

Building Baselife MVP

Earlier this year I renamed the project, registered the domain, and launched a landing page to collect early sign-ups.

Now my co-founder and I are building the full web version. The native app comes next.

Meanwhile, if you journal, practice mindfulness, or have a productivity routine, I would love to learn about your experience. Message me .

Going deep with Claude

I'm usually not the first to jump on a new tool. But Claude hit critical mass for me, and now I'm all in.

I haven't been this excited about a tool in years. The interface, the setup process, the way it works. It feels like it understands me better than I understand myself, and I haven't even fed it my eleven years of journal entries yet. Soon.

Learning to work with my ADHD

I've accepted the fact that I'll always get distracted. Now I'm learning to work within that reality, juggling multiple tasks instead of fighting the impulse.

It's a mixed bag so far. Social apps with their dopamine loops are stronger than my willpower. I think the answer is some combination of hard constraints and deliberate task-switching between things I genuinely care about.

Reconnecting with desire

The last four years were spent emotionally frozen. But even before that, I had quietly forbidden myself from wanting impractical things. I trained myself to be ready to drop everything and run somewhere safer.

Turns out nowhere is safer. Now I'm learning to notice the faintest wants and not shut them down.

For the first time in six years, I wanted a Lego set. Asked friends for one as a birthday gift. Couldn't be happier.

Antidepressants work

Three months on antidepressants. The effect builds gradually. My emotional state has leveled out. Most things that don't directly concern me have stopped bothering me.

I'm supporting the medication with therapy. Together they gave me the energy to notice my patterns and try different responses in familiar situations. Changing thinking through changing behavior.

I slightly regret not starting sooner.
