What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a product design role where I can own end-to-end UX—discovery to implementation—partner with engineering, and build scalable design systems. I want to optimize usability and engagement through research, prototyping, and iterative testing.

I’m a Product Designer with 3+ years of experience designing digital products across financial services, marketplaces, recruitment platforms, and enterprise systems. I lead end-to-end initiatives—from discovery and user research through information architecture, prototyping, design systems, usability testing, and implementation.

I translate complex business requirements into intuitive user experiences while partnering closely with product managers, engineers, and stakeholders. I focus on balancing user needs, business objectives, and technical constraints to drive continuous product optimization.

In my recent roles, I’ve improved outcomes through structured UX work: I increased task completion rates by 18% through workflow redesign, and reduced usability issues by 25% with iterative usability testing. I also contributed to scalable design systems and reusable component libraries.

Across multiple products, I’ve delivered measurable impact—improving engagement by 28% through enhanced interaction design, and boosting website traffic by 20% with retention up 22% through UX improvements. I enjoy turning complex journeys into clear, accessible experiences that work well on mobile and responsive interfaces.
