Most websites look good.
Very few actually help a business grow.
For this client project, I focused on three things:
✓ Clear messaging
✓ Better user experience
✓ Premium interactions and motion
The result is a website that feels modern, professional, and easy to navigate.
Built entirely in Framer.
It's always satisfying watching static designs turn into something people can actually interact with.
Open to new Framer projects.
Love this approach. Great websites are not just about looking good—they should guide users, communicate clearly, and drive results. The interactions on this one are especially well executed.
The New Resume.
Built for the Next Generation🚀

(The breakdown will be provided in the comment section)
The Problem:
The traditional resume is an outdated system built for a different era. It forces dynamic careers into static PDF documents that feel cluttered, disconnected, and fundamentally incompatible with how people consume information today.
Resumes were never designed for modern screens. They fail to communicate narrative, they lack structural precision, and in highly competitive environments, they are increasingly ignored.
A flat document can no longer establish authority or demonstrate real professional value.
Why Storytelling and Design Matter
Professional identity should never be reduced to a fragmented list of experiences.
The strongest personal brands communicate through narrative, structure, and design. Minimalism is not simply an aesthetic preference — it creates immediate trust.
Clean grids, intentional whitespace, and sharp typography signal competence, clarity, and institutional-level professionalism before the content is even processed.
Design itself becomes credibility.
The Solution
Mobile-First Digital Resumes with Unique URLs
Instead of static files, every user receives a dynamic, shareable personal URL that functions as a living professional profile.
Built entirely mobile-first, the experience is optimized for the device where the majority of first professional impressions now happen.
The Engine
Flawless Design Without Design Skills
Exceptional design should not require technical expertise.
To scale premium aesthetics, I built a custom infrastructure powered by Next.js and Supabase that acts as a strict design system and layout engine.
Users simply complete a structured text form.
The backend enforces character limits, controls spacing logic, and automatically compiles every submission into a perfectly balanced, auto-layout-driven interface.
Users focus only on their content.
The Market Opportunity
This platform is built for a massive and underserved audience: ambitious professionals who understand the value of premium digital presence but lack the design or technical skills required to build it themselves.
Professionals, founders, operators, strategists, and builders increasingly need to present themselves with the same level of polish as modern companies.
This is such a sleek concept! Which Figma tools did you use to build this? 👀

What
Squeeze is a dead-simple image compression app that runs entirely in your browser. Drop in any image, and it gets compressed, converted, and resized in seconds; nothing ever leaves your device.
Instead of a spinner, Squeeze shows a silky-smooth visual breakdown of the compression: detail layers, color fields, luminance, metadata; so you see exactly what's happening, frame by frame.

Why
Designers deal with heavy images all day. Existing tools are either ugly, slow, or require uploads. Squeeze answers one question: what if compressing an image felt as good as the image itself?
Fast, private, and beautiful.
Who
For designers who care about both file size and visual quality, whether you're optimizing web assets, preparing a handoff, or just making a file small enough to send.
How
Figma Design agent – generated a rough draft. I polished the UI/UX, then had the agent build a component and variable library from my design.
Figma MCP + Cursor – Rebuilt the component and style libraries one-to-one in code, laying a solid foundation.
Figma Make – Brought the code back via GitHub connector, refined the UI and animations, and published.
