Modern brands + websites that earn trust and drive growth.
Bringing one of the most iconic early 2000s music player designs back to life.
This custom music player combines nostalgic Windows Media Player aesthetics, Y2K interface design, and skeuomorphic UI with modern interactions and animation.
Originally recreated entirely in Figma, the design has evolved into a fully functional interactive component featuring animated speakers that react to music, playback controls, track switching, adjustable volume, and minimize/expand functionality.
Every gradient, button, speaker, and visual detail was carefully recreated to preserve the personality of the original interface.
An exploration of retro interface design, UI animation, microinteractions, and the intersection of nostalgia and modern frontend development.

I got something FREE coming later this evening, comment 'me' if you want tagged when it's done!
BTW, @Blender (https://x.com/Blender) is amazing.

Built a custom @Rive component for the About section of my agency site.
The lanyard and badge are fully interactive. You can grab them, throw them around, and spin the badge 360° to see both sides.
It doesn’t necessarily need to do all of that, but that’s kind of the point.
Small interactive moments like this can turn a pretty standard section of a website into something people actually want to play with, remember, and come back to.

Built this animated beam in @Rive as a simple way to visualize the tools behind my workflow.
Design, motion, AI and development all working together. I used Rive’s CLI to build the component so it stays fully editable, scalable and ready to drop into future projects.
The tools keep changing. The goal stays the same: make better work, faster, without sacrificing the details.
