AI Workflow Systems Design Solo Build

How I Redesigned My Design Process with AI

Rebuilt my design-to-ship workflow around a two-gate, verification-first system — then proved it building and shipping an AI product alone.

Solo-Built 2026

From web to product.
12+ years of designing, building,
measuring, and iterating.

I don't work in sequence. Research, requirements, prototypes, and success metrics — I move all of them forward at once, wherever momentum allows.

I started in web — designing and coding end to end, learning to direct as much as design. At Rakuten, I owned the product across the full cycle: from research and strategy through shipping, then back again — measuring, learning, and iterating on what shipped.

I've navigated complex stakeholder dynamics across engineering, legal, marketing, and executive leadership — aligning, negotiating, and presenting at every level. Looking for my next opportunity to design at a scale where the work genuinely changes how people live.

In 2026, I turned that same discipline on my own process — designing a verification-based workflow for directing AI agents, and shipping a self-directed AI product alone, from research through deployment.
