Life as User Experience

I build apps. Simple tools. Radical constraints. One task at a time. Along the way, I noticed something: the principles that make software worth using — intentional constraints, thoughtful defaults, removing friction — also make life worth living.

But this isn't another productivity book promising to optimize you into a better version of yourself.

This is about what happens when your carefully designed systems fail. When seasons change and what worked perfectly stops working at all. When you wake up one Tuesday feel disconnected and adrift. When you have to let go of identities, habits, and relationships that once served you but no longer do.

It's honest about failure, recovery, maintenance, and the uncomfortable gap between who you want to be and who you actually are.

No 10-step systems. No perfect routines. No promise of transformation.

Just small, thoughtful adjustments. Responsive structure. Permission to be seasonal, to break sometimes, to design a life that's appropriate to who you actually are right now.

If you're looking for revolution, this isn't it. If you're looking for something digg — thoughtfully built, honestly lived, intentionally unfinished — then maybe this is for you.
