The obstacles that don't block your path but make you feel you weren't expected — extending the IUMB framework toward the cost of movement.
Invisible Conditions
Personal Essay · Inclusive Design
Amblyopia since nine. Nerve damage from a typhoon. I study what designed environments extract from people whose needs they didn't anticipate.

Tool · PWA · ESP32
A tool for people who need to communicate with a doctor in ten minutes or less, built for temporary disability and multilingual caregivers.
“The question of whether a space can be entered is not the same as the question of whether, once entered, it allows a person to remain who they are.”

Production Design
Making inner lives legible through space.
Participatory Design
Begin with your assumptions. Test against another's reality.
IoT & UI/UX
Hardware prototyping; devices as extensions of care.
