About me

I’m a creative digital product designer with a proven track record across all digital touchpoints. Passionate about every aspect of design, I bring a collaborative, strategic mindset and a positive hands-on attitude to delivering simple yet smart solutions.

Having led projects across the entire design process – from strategy and exploration to final implementation – I believe in a user-centered approach that considers the bigger picture. Great design extends beyond the interface, creating experiences that resonate in the real world, far beyond screens and post-it notes.

Mindset

User Experience & Product Design

Design is never the same. And so is every project. In my process, I tailor my methods to the specific needs of each product, from research and user journeys to detailed flows and mockups. Knowing when to dive deep and when to apply pixel-perfect attention to detail, I ensure a user-centered experience that works within the product’s ecosystem and constraints.

Visual Design & Design Systems

Attention to detail is key. I create cohesive visual languages and think in systems to make rational decisions. Building design systems that serve as a single source of truth and streamline cross-team communication, optimize production, and ensure design consistency.

Prototyping & User Testing

Design evolves through variations in a non-linear process. In my iterative design approach, I quickly bring ideas to life with mockups, click dummies, and prototypes, testing them with users and stakeholders to gather insights and refine the product step by step.

Design Culture & Creative Leadership

Design is a team effort. I’ve worked end-to-end across the product lifecycle, collaborating with engineers, product managers, and business teams to build better products together. I mentor younger designers, help them to grow in a safe space, foster collaboration, and set a clear design vision.

Business & Communication

Design is deeply connected to business and strategy. I’ve collaborated with multidisciplinary teams and clients ranging from startups to large organizations across various industries, ensuring design aligns with business objectives. Whether shaping the design process or driving product strategy, my focus is always on delivering impactful, results-driven solutions.
