@amandan
I build and lead product design from zero to one, turning complex ideas into shipped products.
What I'm looking for
I've co-founded Cobalt & Twyn.io, a creative agency delivering branding, digital, and film/content production, while designing an AI habit-tracking iOS app currently in development.
At Hyper, I led product design end-to-end alongside six engineers and three product team members. I cut design-to-development handoff time by 50%, shipped a full app redesign in four weeks, and redesigned social mechanics after user interviews, contributing to a 35% increase in retention and 12% growth in D2 friend connections as the user base grew from 10k to 100k.
Previously, I directed four designers at Hector Network to launch a DEX, NFT marketplace, launchpad, and marketing site from zero to one. I've also built design systems, managed junior designers, and delivered branding, print, digital, motion, and 3D work for 50+ freelance clients.
