Executive brief

I design and ship complex products end to end.

I'm a designer and builder with range across the whole product. My roots are in brand systems, UI and website design, and the development to ship them, for clients from startups to enterprise. Over 18 years that grew into designing and building complete products end to end. As a founder I've launched four production-grade platforms on my own: brand, product, platform, and the AI-orchestrated development behind them. Every one is live and on this page. Inside a team I bring the same range and ownership. I work close to engineering, move quickly, and get AI-native features into production.

Roles I'm targeting.

Design-first product leadership roles where I own 0→1 systems, ship AI-native experiences, and drive outcomes.

I'm also open to design-led founding roles where 0→1 ownership is the job.

Tools & stack

Design through deployment.

Tools I use daily across design, production infra, real-time collaboration, and AI integration. The stack behind four shipped platforms.

Founder products

Real products. In production.

Four founder platforms: Scope Architect is live, LoreTorch is launching now, and Vizon OS and Capsole are in private beta. On each one I owned brand, marketing website, product design, platform design, and AI-orchestrated development.

Scope ArchitectLaunched 2026

Dev tooling + agent infrastructure

Mission control for building with AI.

Scope Architect turns a raw idea into an agent-ready plan, hands the work to coding agents over MCP, and keeps every task, token, and PR visible as the build moves. I designed and built the full product: brand, marketing website, product UX, and the orchestration layer (scoping engine, cloud sandbox execution, context management, and BYOK). It's the same product category as Vercel Sandbox and agent platforms.

Problem

AI coding sessions lose context, drift silently, and leave you flying blind. Chat forgets, and the thread breaks between the idea and the shipped code.

Design

UX that keeps a human in command of agent work: idea-to-scope flow, a shared command center for you and your agent, and execution views that surface every task, token, and PR in real time.

Platform

Structured scoping engine with Zod-validated schemas, MCP handoff to coding agents, cloud sandbox execution, context and memory management, and BYOK across providers.

Outcome

Live in production: a raw idea becomes an agent-ready plan in minutes, and the build stays visible and on-thread from scope to merged PR.

Multi-tenant enterprise scope

An AI-native operating system for modern business.

Vizon OS is my moonshot platform: a live, multi-tenant SaaS that replaces an entire stack of disconnected tools with one shared brain. CRM, docs, messaging, and AI agents in one data model. I built the brand, marketing website, product design, and the full production-grade platform using AI-orchestrated development to ship enterprise infrastructure solo.

Multi-Tenant SaaSCRM + Docs + MessagingAI Agents

Problem

Small teams drown in tool sprawl. Strategy lives in one app, CRM in another, execution in a third. Context breaks at every switch and AI can't help because nothing is connected.

Design

Full brand system, marketing website, and product UI across three platform layers: Strategy, Operations, and Intelligence. One cohesive visual language from moonshot planning to daily execution.

Platform

Multi-tenant SaaS with a unified data model: CRM, projects, TipTap collaborative docs, LiveKit messaging, Lenz AI, one-click agents, and platform-wide workflow rules with multi-step AI nodes.

Outcome

In private beta, running live with client teams. One system in place of a CRM, a docs tool, a messaging app, and a strategy suite, with AI that keeps context across every module.

01Strategy: moonshot planning, personas, brand & funnels
02Operations: CRM, projects, docs, messaging
03Intelligence: Nexus, Lenz AI, agents, workflows
CapsolePrivate beta

Deep domain expertise, productized

The operating system for creative agencies.

Capsole is an agency OS I designed and built to unify the full client lifecycle: AI project scoping, client proposals, e-sign, project management, real-time collaborative documents, and LiveKit voice and video. Eighteen years of running agency work, productized into one system.

Problem

Agencies stitch together Notion, spreadsheets, PM tools, and email. Context and billable time vanish at every handoff.

Design

Agency-native UX for client portals, internal delivery views, proposals, and team workflows. Brand and product identity built for principals who've been burned by generic PM tools.

Platform

Unified platform with AI scoping, client proposals, e-sign flows, real-time TipTap documents, LiveKit voice and video, and Slack-style team collaboration in one data model.

Outcome

In private beta. Scoping connects directly to proposals, e-sign, and delivery in one system, built to give agencies back the billable hours that coordination eats.

LoreTorchLaunching now

Interaction-heavy real-time UX

A full AI dungeon master inside a virtual tabletop.

LoreTorch is a complete VTT platform built around Aris, an AI game master that improvises worlds, tracks state, and runs sessions. I own the brand, website, product design, and the full production-grade platform: live multiplayer state and AI orchestration in one of the most interaction-heavy product categories there is.

Problem

Digital tabletop tools handle maps and dice, but the soul of the game is the GM. That experience was missing from every VTT on the market.

Design

Brand, marketing website, and narrative-first UX for session setup, world state, and player interaction. High-fantasy depth without overwhelming new players.

Platform

Full VTT with complex state management, generative AI prompt chains for dungeon master mechanics, and real-time session orchestration across players and world data.

Outcome

Launching now at loretorch.com. An AI game master that improvises worlds and runs live multiplayer sessions. A category wedge no incumbent VTT is building.

What people say
We were launching a global hackathon series at San Francisco Blockchain Week starting at zero and needed everything ready to launch within 2 weeks. Tie delivered. We received a lot of great comments on the branding during the kickoff SF Hackathon. You did a great job!

Selected client work

18 years of 0→1 client launches.

A few client launches from my agency years. Brand, website, and growth systems, usually built from scratch on tight timelines.

How I think

Product leadership, not task execution.

I use AI-driven engineering pipelines to move at the speed of a full product team. I own the design, platform, and product direction, and AI handles the bulk of the implementation. That lets one person take a product from idea to production without the usual handoffs.

0→1

Full Product Ownership

Brand, marketing website, product design, platform design, and production deployment. One owner from first idea to live deployment, no handoffs.

AI

AI-Orchestrated Execution

I integrate AI into product experiences and development workflows to reduce friction and ship faster, from autonomous agents to cloud sandboxes and intelligent scoping.

Teams

Built Solo, Designed for Teams

Eighteen years of client and stakeholder collaboration. Founder ownership means I've sat on every side of the table: PM, engineering, design, and support. I know what each discipline needs from a designer. I give direct critique and expect it back.

Let's talk about what you're building.

Pull up Scope Architect or LoreTorch and I'll walk you through how I built each one, from idea to production. Or send me your product and I'll tell you the first thing I'd improve.
