I'm Patri - a designer with 10+ years of experience helping companies turn complex technology into products that feel natural


I design coherent, scalable experiences for technical, data-heavy spaces like SaaS and developer-facing products, where the hard part is making real complexity feel simple to work with. Especially at 3am, when you've just been woken up by a notification and you're trying to figure out why your logs stopped working.
