What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that leverages my expertise in UX/UI design and design systems to drive innovation and excellence.

With a talent for UX/UI, I have successfully managed and coordinated projects from concept to completion for top-tier clients such as IBM, Salesforce, and Google.

With a strong background in design thinking, agile methodologies, and leadership, I have a unique ability to bridge the gap between design and development. My expertise in Figma, Adobe XD, Sketch, and other design tools has enabled me to create scalable architecture and facilitate growth in design systems.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a passion for usability, and have a proven ability to work with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality results. I am excited to leverage my skills and experience to drive innovation and excellence in my next role.
