Cover image for Working with @Valeriya NōME was
Working with @Valeriya NōME was one of those collaborations that reminds you why creative partnerships are so special. Valeria is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans digital and physical forms — from evocative figure studies and conceptual series to sculptural objects and large-scale walls. My role in bringing her online presence to life was primarily technical and motion-focused. We worked together on her Framer-based portfolio, building on a theme and shaping it into something that truly felt like Valeria. The bulk of my work involved fine-tuning animations throughout the site — making sure transitions felt fluid, intentional, and in harmony with the mood of her work rather than distracting from it. Beyond that, I introduced and customized several new components, iterating closely with Valeria until each element matched the experience she wanted visitors to have. What made this project particularly enjoyable was the nature of the collaboration itself. Valeria has a clear, strong artistic voice, which made it easy to orient every technical decision around a real creative north star. When the person you're building for knows exactly what feeling they want to evoke, your job as a developer becomes less about guessing and more about executing with care. If you find yourself in need of a moment of inspiration or simply want to feast your eyes on something genuinely beautiful, do yourself a favor and visit nome.art (http://nome.art). With collections spanning works like Alive, Serenity, Reincarnation, and Death & Rebirth, there's something there that will stop you mid-scroll — in the best possible way.

Cover image for Recently I’ve started prototyping my
Recently I’ve started prototyping my designs in Figma more than I have in the past. I tended to avoid prototyping in the past due to it being time consuming and honestly most of the projects I was working on were simple enough to not require this amount of detail. But as the projects I work on have become more complex I’ve found that this extra attention to detail really helps align with stakeholders and sell them on a design before starting development. With a prototyped design clients are able to interact and see how the website will function, not just how it will look. This helps reduce uncertainty in the final deliverable and ultimately helps speed up Webflow development. In the past describing all the hover interactions and click interactions for something even as simple as the slider below would require both time for me to explain and some imagination on the client’s part. While imagination is great, it’s not the best way to align on fine details. Anyways, long story short, new policy is show don’t tell.
