Senior product designer specializing in immersive UI/UX, VR/AR, and cross-platform SaaS experiences.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior product designer with extensive experience creating immersive UI/UX for AAA VR titles, mixed reality solutions, and cross-platform SaaS products. I combine user-centered research, prototyping, and design systems to deliver polished digital experiences.
At Ubisoft I designed and prototyped user flows and interactions for an Assassins Creed VR title, led workshops, coordinated cross-discipline teams, and maintained design systems across extended reality paradigms.
Previously I helped win Microsoft Partner status through a mixed reality proof-of-concept for factory operations, and led UX/Product roles delivering HoloLens, VR, desktop, mobile and tablet applications while acting as Product Owner in Agile environments.
I bring strong technical skills across Adobe, prototyping tools, 3D toolchains, game engines and version control, and I mentor teams, run user testing, and push interaction, motion and immersion to create intuitive, engaging products.
