What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a collaborative product-design role where I can lead user-centered design, build design systems, run research and prototyping, and drive measurable engagement and retention improvements.

I’m a product designer with extensive experience leading end-to-end design projects for digital products, taking concepts through prototyping to launch. I focus on user-centered solutions and design systems that improve engagement, conversion rates and platform functionality.

I conduct user testing, interviews and analysis to inform designs and iterate effectively, translating user insights into practical interaction and visual solutions.

I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, mentor junior designers, and bring practical skills in visual design, interaction design, brand implementation, and project delivery.
