What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, where I can lead design initiatives and drive user-centric solutions.

I am a Lead UX/Product Designer with over 10 years of experience leading design teams and creating intuitive user experiences. My journey has been marked by a proven track record in building and managing design teams, driving product strategy, and delivering impactful solutions for global B2B SaaS and enterprise clients. I thrive on problem-solving and fostering collaborative environments that enhance creativity and innovation.

Currently, I lead a world-class international team at Hyland, where we define experiences for strategic offerings. My role involves shaping product vision, initiating exploratory research, and developing innovative solutions that have received praise from clients and executives alike. I have successfully driven the discovery and implementation of features that significantly improve user efficiency and reduce usability issues.

Previously, I managed the Product Design department at SDH, where I scaled the team and implemented design processes that enhanced productivity and client retention. My experience also includes overseeing product design efforts for a leading learning SaaS platform, where I collaborated with top-tier clients like Uber and Airbnb. I am passionate about crafting seamless workflows and ensuring that design solutions are user-centric and impactful.
