My commitment to continuous improvement drives me to share knowledge and learn from my surroundings, ensuring that I remain at the forefront of industry trends.

In my recent role as a UX/UI Designer at SATSA, I have designed desktop and app interfaces, coordinated user research, and developed a comprehensive Design System.
