## Interests

I combine my passion for financial technology with user-centered design to make complex systems easier to use. My experience spans both traditional finance and Web3, allowing me to create products that balance technical power with user needs.

Beyond my professional work, I actively trade across multiple markets as a personal passion, helping me stay deeply connected to the end-user experience of financial products.

When I'm not designing or coding, you'll find me playing tennis, golf, skiing, or running.
