A long-time freelancer and founder of momate, he has contributed to notable open-source projects like react-markdown and dat.gui, improving walker functionality and event handling in lightweight UI tooling. He judges web design for Awwwards and repeatedly pivots careers when curiosity wanes, signaling a restless drive for meaningful, well-crafted digital experiences that respect nature and simplicity.
