Product designer with over 2 years of experience in UX.
What I'm looking for
I am a product designer with over two years of experience, specializing in applying systems thinking and scalable design to solve complex problems and drive product impact. My journey has taken me through various fast-paced, product-driven environments where I have honed my skills in UX design, focusing on creating intuitive and engaging user experiences.
At InfraClear, I conceptualized and designed the corporate website from the ground up, aligning it with market standards and user psychology. My work led to a significant increase in user sign-ups and improved product communication. Additionally, my role as a UX Design Fellow at the Brooklyn Museum allowed me to identify and address major pain points through usability testing, resulting in enhanced navigation and user engagement.
My experience spans various projects, including designing an AI-powered financial literacy app and establishing scalable design systems for major clients like Hertz and Toyota North America. I am passionate about leveraging design principles and research data to optimize user flows and improve overall user satisfaction.
