About

Technology and visual practice belong to the same process.

I am a front-end developer and independent product builder based in Poznań. My work combines more than a decade of web experience with an academic background in painting.

Current focus

Browser-native tools with depth, character and a real product purpose.

Since December 2023 I have been building Zafiro: a shared platform for browser-based 3D products, including Garden Planner and Isle Lab.

Previously, I spent ten years working on global web platforms at GSK, moving from AEM implementation and technical support into front-end development, reusable UI systems and accessible component design.

I work end to end: problem framing, visual direction, interaction design, architecture, implementation and the less visible systems required to keep a complex product maintainable.

Capabilities

  • JavaScript, TypeScript and React
  • Three.js, WebGL and browser-based 3D
  • Product design and interaction architecture
  • Design systems, UX/UI and WCAG
