What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead user-centered design, build design systems, collaborate cross-functionally, leverage AI tools, and deliver measurable product improvements.

I am a Product Designer focused on user-centered solutions, blending UX research, high-fidelity UI, and AI-assisted prototyping to accelerate delivery and improve outcomes.

I've collaborated cross-functionally with product managers, engineers, data scientists and customers to define the right problems and converge on impactful solutions, using tools like Figma, V0, Lovable and Claude.

My work includes building design system foundations and component libraries, delivering dev-ready designs and motion assets, and running interviews and workshops to ground products in real user needs across EdTech and AgTech.

I prioritize clarity, accessibility and rapid iteration, balancing pragmatic front-end awareness (HTML/CSS/JS) with strong visual craft to reduce friction for users and rework for engineering teams.
