Brian Rogstad — Designer and Frontend Engineer

I accept cookies.

I design and build systems, applications, interfaces, websites, component libraries, and prototypes. Whatever piece of the product needs attention, I can pick it up, from research and architecture through design and frontend code. And occasionally the backend, when no one's looking.
