Hi, I'm Alfred, a product designer who turns research into accessible, considered interfaces for complex information systems.

Working end-to-end — from research through production-ready code — balancing user needs, business goals, and technical realities.

Currently leading the public-facing ecosystem design at University of Maryland Libraries. 5+ years experiences across hardware-adjacent software, e-commerce, and higher education.
