What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead UX strategy and research within cross-functional teams, drive design systems, mentor designers, and solve complex product problems in user-centered, collaborative agile environments.

I am a senior UX designer and researcher with 13+ years working in agile environments across UX, UI and front-end roles for industries including semiconductors, cybersecurity, e-commerce and media.

I led a team of four UX/UI designers, set up UX workflows at Forescout, and delivered UX architecture, research, prototyping and high‑fidelity designs for complex platforms and lithography equipment at ASML and Forescout.

I combine multidisciplinary skills — user research, workshops, wireframing, prototyping, information architecture, accessibility and design systems — with a collaborative, people‑focused approach and a strong grounding in communication theories, sociology and cognitive psychology.
