## How I work

- Understand the problem. What should this product do, and who is it for? Clear answers come from questioning assumptions and looking at the problem from different sides.
- Make considered choices. Structure, visuals and interactions serve the product. A detail earns its place when it makes something clearer or easier to use.
- Stay involved. A direct collaboration through design, development and launch. The same person stays involved as the idea takes shape.
