It was quite a challenge - I’ve never worked on anything like this before. I’ve never really used code beyond small integrations in @Framer , so building something like this felt huge for me.

I’m honestly happy like a kid who just built their first paper plane that actually flies, or a little paper boat that finally sails. @Figma

Grab the Bears - A Camera-Based Gesture Interaction

A few years ago, gesture interaction required a full engineering team and months of development.

For the Figma Makeathon, I built a working camera-controlled gesture game on my own - entirely in Figma Make.

Onboarding screens are like first dates. You have about 5 seconds to be interesting before they leave Communication is non-negotiable, the message needs to be clear, but it also has to feel worth watching, engaging... fun! I made this animation with @Rive to walk new users through FlyBox's mobile app. How the service works, why it matters. Simple shapes, smooth transitions, clear message.

turned my portfolio into a comic book.

👉 https://iron-repair-87405717.figma.site Not a PDF. Not a slide deck. A full interactive storybook — with page turns, halftone textures, and a Spider-Verse aesthetic.

Why? Because I'm a designer. My portfolio shouldn't just show my work — it should be my work.

Every spread tells a chapter of my journey with quantified impact, not just pretty pixels. If it doesn't make you flip the next page, I haven't done my job.

How it adapts:

🖥️ Desktop — 3D perspective book with camera zoom, page-turning, and hidden Easter eggs. Go explore.

📱 Mobile — Swipe-based reading with gyroscope parallax, haptic feedback, and effects that scale to your device. A $200 phone and a flagship both get the best experience they can handle.

Design thinking applied all the way down to the code.
