That mix of design and front-end work still shapes how I build today: practical, performant and easy to maintain.

Samir turned a messy, five-page brief into a site that explains our product in one scroll. Sign-ups doubled in the first month.


I read every brief myself and reply within one working day — usually much sooner.
