I am a Product Designer with 4 years of experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a Product Designer with four years of experience in delivering end-to-end products globally. My journey has taken me across three continents, where I have not only studied but also worked in diverse environments. I hold a degree in International Relations alongside my design studies, which enriches my perspective on user needs and market dynamics.
Currently, I am a Co-Founder and Product Designer at LSM Branding, where I lead multiple product design projects, focusing on research, wireframing, and UI/UX design. My previous roles at Pooky and Vacuumlabs have equipped me with the skills to enhance user engagement and improve product retention through user-centered design practices. I thrive in collaborative settings, working closely with engineers and growth teams to deliver impactful features that drive business success.
My passion lies in understanding the psychology behind design decisions and using those insights to create solutions that genuinely help people. I believe that great design balances aesthetics with functionality, and I am committed to delivering products that resonate with users while achieving business objectives.
