What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, allowing me to contribute to impactful design projects while continuing to grow my skills in user experience and accessibility.

As a product designer with seven years of experience, I specialize in creating scalable digital experiences that prioritize user engagement and accessibility. My recent work includes leading the redesign of RideBustang.com, adhering to WCAG 2.1 guidelines, which significantly improved SEO metrics. I was recognized as Engineer of the Quarter at Microsoft for my leadership in a project that increased user engagement by 25%.

Throughout my career, I have developed unique design methodologies and collaborated with cross-functional teams to enhance user experiences. My role as a Senior Product Designer at iMentor involved formulating effective UI standards that reduced usability complaints by 40%. I have also successfully launched platforms that foster deeper interactions, resulting in notable increases in engagement and retention rates.
