Designer + Developer based in Singapore
Hey there! I'm Alfian, but I'm known to most as Alfie.
Think of me as a designer who codes. I bridge the gap between strategy, design, development, and automation to turn ideas into fully realised products. Based in Singapore, I’ve been designing since 2016 and coding since 2018, working on everything from AI-powered applications and government services to WordPress themes, plugins, and custom digital products. I am a huge self-development advocate, and I strive to learn something new daily.
Selected Work
Works that I'm most proud of + best represent my design and development approach. For a more comprehensive look at my work, check out the full list of case studies. Limited to the last 4 years of work, but I have been designing and coding since 2016 and 2018 respectively.
PracticePilot: AI role-play training for insurance agents.
PracticePilot is an MVP app designed around focused AI-assisted rehearsal for new insurance agents. It turns a broad training brief into a voice-first practice loop with transcript-grounded coaching, daily challenges, and clearer artefacts for product, training, and compliance review.

A lil' bit about myself
I design experiences end-to-end: user research, UI/UX design, design systems, AI-assisted prototyping, and more. I also work across frontend development, which helps me create designs that are not only user-friendly but also technically feasible. I’m passionate about using technology to solve real-world problems and create meaningful experiences for users.
