A practical breakdown of the tools I actually rely on across design and front-end work — from Figma, Notion, and Cursor to Next.js, GSAP, and AI-native workflows. Not a giant list, but a focused system for building faster, thinking clearer, and shipping better work.

A personal review of ten web experiences that stayed with me — not just because they looked good, but because they solved motion, layout, storytelling, and interaction in memorable ways. This is less about trends, more about what I learned from studying them as a design engineer.

My front-end focused take on Shopify Editions Winter 2026 — the launches, product direction, and technical signals that matter most for builders. I want to look past the marketing layer and ask: what changes workflows, what changes UX, and what should developers actually pay attention to?

AI is not replacing taste, design logic, or engineering judgment — but it is becoming the glue between them. In this post, I want to unpack how I use AI across ideation, component planning, visual exploration, debugging, and content structuring without losing coherence or craft.

A personal reflection on learning ikebana — not only as flower arrangement, but as a way of training observation, restraint, balance, and intention. I want to document how a beginner can approach it, what makes it challenging, and why it unexpectedly connects to design thinking.

A candid piece about the invisible friction many women with ADHD live with — inconsistency, shame, overwhelm, perfectionism, and the gap between potential and output. But it is also about hope: building systems that are kinder, more realistic, and actually compatible with how our brains work.

My honest journey with Three.js — the excitement, confusion, performance trade-offs, and visual possibilities. I want to write about what makes 3D on the web powerful, where it gets frustrating, and how I’m approaching it through the lens of storytelling, motion, and production-friendly front-end development.

How I combined retro CRT aesthetics with modern web performance — horizontal scroll orchestration, R3F glitch shaders, and a three-layer architecture that keeps everything composable.
