What I'm looking for

I'm looking for product design opportunities where I can own meaningful product domains, collaborate closely with product managers and engineers, and create accessible mobile and desktop experiences.

Product Designer with 6 years of experience designing products across mobile and desktop. Experienced in the full design process from user research and discovery to handoff, with a strong focus on mobile, interaction design, and design systems. Background working within product teams at SaaS companies and design consultancies across New Zealand, Germany, US and Brazil, with a track record of owning design domains independently and collaborating closely with product managers and engineer

I've owned mobile design end-to-end at ecoPortal, a B2B safety management SaaS platform, delivering features including AI-powered search, geofence check-in, task management, calendars, reminders, and smart language switching.

I led the design of AI-facing experiences, including a web-based smart assistant chatbot and product-wide visual guidelines for AI. I also managed design systems, accessibility compliance, developer handoff, and a full redesign of product email notifications.

Previously, I designed Audora at Thinslices, supported Viasat Tech Tools for field technicians, and created fifteen university portals and an enrollment flow for Anima Educacao at Usabit. I work closely with product managers, engineers, stakeholders, and clients across the full product lifecycle.
