## What I'm looking for

```text
I seek product design roles where I can lead UI/UX and branding, use AI-assisted workflows, build design systems, and collaborate cross-functionally to deliver measurable user and business impact.
```

## About

```text
I am a product and UI/UX designer with extensive experience leading visual identity, brand direction and cross-channel product design for international projects. I blend hands-on design execution with strategic 0→1 product definition, rapid prototyping and data-informed decision making.

My work spans product design, interactive experiences, web implementations and creative direction, with notable achievements in building design systems, monetization flows, trust & safety automation and AI-assisted tooling. I routinely prototype with Figma, Webflow and Firebase and collaborate closely with engineering to deliver scalable interfaces.

I value clarity, accessibility and measurable outcomes, and I bring deep skills in branding, motion, 3D and AI tools to modernize product experiences and accelerate delivery across teams.
