Senior product designer building design systems and AI product UX outcomes.
GeorgiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Sr. Product Designer with 6 years of experience building digital products across startups, EdTech, fintech, and AI tooling. I focus on creating UI that performs in the real world—across web apps, browser extensions, and marketing sites.
In recent roles, I’ve owned design systems end-to-end and kept teams aligned across multiple product surfaces. At Awesomic, I built the design system and UI for Drumkit AI (web app, Chrome extension, and website) and maintained consistency for a team of 3 designers.
I’ve shipped product improvements tied to measurable outcomes. I increased designer engagement by 21% average, supported end-to-end design for performance and portfolio flows, and contributed to a +220% lead conversion and +40 min/week user retention from my work across products.
I’m also comfortable leading design execution and driving team clarity. As Design Lead at Promodo, I introduced the Clean Design methodology, led sprint planning for 3–5 person teams, and improved conversion by 19% average across client products.
