I'm Stephen, a product designer near Chicago with an independent software development practice. My client work includes service tools, healthcare interfaces, and AI review workflows. I turn research and requirements into detailed interactions and reusable UI.
CFB Model Lab is my college football research app. Its matchup tool lets you choose two teams, change the venue, and see how the projected margin changes. I designed the interface and built the Python modeling workflows with AI-assisted development.
