Designer, technologist, and founder of OpusLABS — exploring the future of emotional computing, ambient AI, and posthuman interfaces. I work at the intersection of large language models, haptics, and human experience. Focused on building tools and systems that feel natural, invisible, and emotionally intelligent.

Currently developing Opus: a wearable device that translates digital sentiment into tactile sensation. Also writing about entangled minds, design futures, and AI-native workflows.

Always building, often philosophizing.
