Garlic is the foodie app for your friends. No garbo spam from gmaps or SusieQ on yelp. People you trust, in a place that's fun. Create lists for yourself and others, keep track of tasty dishes, and if you're crazy like me, connect your openclaw ai agent to discover yumyum tasty dishes.

We founded Garlic to meet a need we saw. I built the design and system to return to having fun on the internet, and not a bland black-and-white sinkhole. Rate places with emoji, not numbers, that's not how taste works. Friend-only (mutuals) so you can trust every review and comment you see. Colorful, perky UI and interactions so the app is as enjoying to use as much as it is useful.

With help from my cuz claude, I also built all the new features in the native app last year: front-end, back-end, and even having calls with Apple for approvals. React Android Notifications Expo Supabase Postgres Triggers Edge-Functions VSCode yikes.

As the sole designer, worked with our CEO, Head of Product, and Head of Engineering to make the app for the next generation of gamers. FreshCut lets you learn, share, and connect over trending games, wherever you play.

Lead and collaborated cross-functionally with product and engineering to define, explore, converge, and iterate designs to modernize Reddit with a user-centric approach. Executed clear and concise user journeys, wireframes, mockups, interactive prototypes, and specs while advocating for usability and simple, elegant design. Created these experiences for the iOS app, Android app, video, consumer monetization, live RPAN, April Fools, and more.

Owned design for iOS and Android apps from definition to shipping. Worked closely and built strong relationships with an agile team, lead design studios for project kick-offs. Led and gave critical feedback with designers to raise the bar on our designs.
