I’m Shaun, a conceptual multidisciplinary designer based in Brooklyn, New York. I work across small design shops and large agencies, moving between both with ease.

My toolkit spans the full Adobe suite, Figma, and Keynote, alongside AI tools like Claude, Cursor, and Lovable. Lately I’ve been pushing further into AI-assisted workflows and AI-enabled prototyping, exploring what becomes possible when creativity and emerging technology overlap. Detail-oriented and collaborative by nature, I’m always looking to connect with designers across every discipline.

Services

5 disciplines

1. Design Systems
Design systems built to scale across products, platforms, and brands. Work focuses on modern system architecture (tokens, variables, components, and governance) designed to reduce maintenance, improve adoption, and align design and engineering teams around a shared source of truth. Increasingly that means AI enablement too: working on the front lines of new processes and tooling, testing AI-assisted workflows inside the system, and bringing what works back to the team so the system keeps pace with how products are actually built.
2. Interaction Design
Interactive experiences shaped around clarity, responsiveness, and intent. Emphasis is placed on flows, states, transitions, and feedback, ensuring interactions feel purposeful, intuitive, and production-ready, not just visually compelling.
3. Visual Identity
Visual identities translated into flexible, digital-first systems. Color, typography, and layout are designed to remain expressive, accessible, and consistent across platforms, balancing brand expression with real-world product constraints.
4. Graphic Design
Graphic design grounded in strong fundamentals of hierarchy, composition, and craft. This work supports everything from marketing assets to product interfaces, bringing clarity and polish while maintaining efficiency and focus.
5. AI Enabled
Staying current with the latest AI tools through hands-on building. I keep experimenting, from coding agents to generative 3D and audio, to understand where each tool shines, where it breaks, and how to harness it in a real design workflow. The goal is mastery, not novelty: using AI to prototype faster, test ideas in working code, and raise the quality of what ships.
