Case Study

Savarion.com

Building a world-rich marketing site that does more than just explain the product.

I designed and developed Savarion.com to introduce a new fantasy board game, communicate its world and mechanics clearly, and give visitors interactive ways to connect with the setting beyond a standard marketing page.

End-to-end ownership

Led the site from concept through frontend execution, shaping the visual direction, information flow, and interaction model.

Interactive storytelling

Added features like the “Which Race Are You?” quiz to turn passive browsing into a more memorable, participatory experience.

Product-focused marketing

Designed the experience to teach the world, support interest in the game, and give the brand a stronger launch presence online.

Role

Product storytelling, web design, frontend development

Focus

Worldbuilding, interaction design, conversion-oriented presentation

Feature Highlight

The “Which Race Are You?” quiz gives visitors a playful on-ramp into the lore through a house-sorting style interaction.

Problem

A new tabletop property needs more than a sales page. It has to teach the premise, establish tone, and make the world feel interesting enough to explore.

Approach

I built the site as a blend of product marketing and interactive storytelling, combining strong visual direction with features that help visitors engage with the game universe, not just read about it.

Outcome

The result is a more memorable launch presence that supports discovery, reinforces the game’s identity, and gives prospective players richer ways to connect with the brand.

What I bring

Design judgment, engineering rigor, and systems thinking.

Over the last several years I have helped teams launch user-facing experiences, improve production workflows, and build reusable systems that make quality easier to scale. My strongest work sits at the intersection of product strategy, interface design, and frontend implementation.

I am most effective in environments where design, engineering, and operations overlap. That usually means turning messy workflows into reliable systems, shaping interfaces with product intent, and building tools that help teams move faster without sacrificing quality.

SKNKWRX.CO

Case Study

The Forge

Improving asset quality at the source with a Figma plugin.

I built The Forge to reduce repetitive cleanup work around SVG export and make accessibility and SEO considerations easier to preserve inside the design workflow.

Problem

Teams needed a cleaner way to produce accessible SVG assets without relying on manual fixes after export.

Approach

I designed and built a Figma plugin that standardized output, reduced handoff friction, and embedded better asset practices into the workflow itself.

Outcome

The result was a more repeatable process for generating better SVGs, with less cleanup and more consistency across production work.
