What I'm looking for

I'm looking to simplify complex product workflows through user research, interaction design, and scalable visual systems, while collaborating closely with product and engineering teams to bring ideas closer to production.

At Dinesurf, I redesign and evolve a B2B restaurant-management dashboard spanning reservations, orders, tables, guest management, analytics, and operational tools.

I turn user interviews, usability testing, and recurring behavioral insights into product improvements. I also built and maintained a reusable design system that improved consistency and reduced design and development turnaround time by 30%.

I've contributed to digital products at Hotel.ng and Metridash through research, wireframing, prototyping, information architecture, and end-to-end execution. I use AI-assisted development tools to take ideas beyond the design file and closer to production.
