Result-driven UI Designer with 8+ years crafting engaging, data-driven user and brand experiences.
What I'm looking for
I am a result-driven User Interface (UI) Designer with over 8 years of experience in graphic design and user-centered product experiences. I blend visual communication, illustration, multimedia and interaction design to craft engaging, data-driven user journeys.
Throughout my career I have led teams and delivered high-volume work under tight deadlines, from brand identity packages to web and packaging design. I have a proven record improving user engagement—one redesign delivered a 40% increase in website traffic, 60% rise in page views and 90% longer session times.
I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including executives, front-end and back-end developers to ensure smooth implementation of prototypes and maintain design systems and brand guidelines. I also mentor and train junior designers, having managed and grown a team of five designers earlier in my career.
I stay current with design trends and tools, hold certifications in UI/UX and advanced graphic design, and participate in industry events such as Adobe Max to continually refine my craft and deliver measurable outcomes for clients and stakeholders.
