What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build cohesive, user-centered digital experiences, especially through scalable design systems, UI components, and close collaboration with product and engineering teams.

I am a Product and Graphic Designer with 8 years of experience in visual communication, branding, and digital design. At Dell Technologies, I was part of the Dell Design System team, working closely with engineering
to rebuild components for the launch of a new version. Prior to that, I worked on an internal sales tool at Dell, focusing on improving usability and visual consistency within a global product environment. Before Dell, as Graphic Design Lead at Acend Studio, I directed brand identity projects, managed content strategy, and led multidisciplinary creative teams. With a solid foundation in graphic design, UI/UX, writing, and problem-solving, I deliver cohesive, high-quality visual solutions that support both business and user needs.
