## What I'm looking for

```text
I'm looking to build AI-driven, accessible products with cross-functional teams, translating complex technology into trustworthy, scalable user experiences.
```

## About

```text
I've launched AI-driven products at Kidooo ai, OCBridge, and Holomix, designing family platforms, recruiter dashboards, and creator tools from end to end.

At Holomix, I helped pioneer ThumbnailAI, which reached 25K MAUs and ranked top five globally for “AI thumbnail” search. I translated LLM and image-diffusion outputs into intuitive creative workflows and ran experiments that increased retention 10% and freemium-to-paid conversion 5%.

I've also led UX research, prototyping, accessibility work, and design-system development for T-Mobile's CareLink tele-rehabilitation platform, Simon's smart-home experience, and ASML's internal developer dashboard. I work closely with engineering and product teams to turn complex systems into clear, scalable experiences.
