Product designer crafting intuitive, research-driven web and mobile experiences that boost engagement.
What I'm looking for
I am a product designer with hands-on experience building cross-platform web and mobile products, from discovery through launch. I led end-to-end designs for background verification, booking/payment flows, and admin dashboards that reduced onboarding and task time significantly.
I collaborate closely with engineers and product managers to deliver developer-ready Figma systems, prototypes, and accessible interfaces; my work has driven measurable improvements such as 85% faster onboarding, 25% fewer task clicks, and higher user satisfaction scores.
I combine user research, iterative prototyping, and design systems to scale products while mentoring and leading small design teams. I'm motivated to solve real user problems and deliver polished, production-ready experiences.
