Figuring out where AI helps, where it doesn't, and how much cleanup i'm doing either way.

AI as a design partner

A partner that doesn’t do the work for me but helps me understand the problem faster and explore areas I wouldn't reach alone. Cursor and React have pushed me closer to where products actually get made. What interests me more is what it means to design products that use AI well. Not just faster, but in ways that people can actually trust.

What AI doesn't show you

User trust in AI isn't immediate, it happens over time. AI interfaces can show you the answer without the reasoning or confidence. Humans need transparency to verify what AI concluded, why and have control to pushback. That's what Scaffold is exploring: what does it look like to keep humans in the loop as an interesting tension to tackle.

Business brain, human heart, and brand hands.

Product designer who uses curiosity as the strategy.
