(About)
Design, color, code
Color management R&D at Apple by day. An independent creative practice since 2019.
I work across marketing, branding, web development and creative strategy, often as the agency or the vendor. My clients are in construction, engineering, medical-legal services, life sciences and healthcare: fields where accuracy matters more than flourish.
My day job is in color: profiling, matching and the trade-offs of getting the same color out of every press. That habit of checking the failure modes carries into everything else, from design tokens to deploy pipelines.
I am now founding West Five Labs, a creative agency for the AI era, with an R&D arm for AI prototyping and agent workflows.
