What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, where I can contribute to impactful design projects and continue to grow professionally.

As a product designer with over five years of experience, I specialize in delivering comprehensive design solutions across various sectors, including fintech, e-commerce, and international development. My expertise lies in UX strategy, UI design, and creating design systems for both mobile and web platforms. I have successfully led major design initiatives, such as the rebranding of HelloFresh's UI, which significantly improved usability and brand alignment.

In my recent role at Active Journey Alliance, I contributed to enhancing the user experience of the HelloFresh app, implementing features that improved user engagement and satisfaction. I have also taken on educational roles, mentoring students in UX principles and sharing my knowledge at industry events. My commitment to user-centered design drives my work, ensuring that every project I undertake meets the needs of users while achieving business goals.
