Product Design Director and CRO specialist driving growth through data-driven UX and design leadership.
What I'm looking for
I am a Strategic Product Design Director and CRO specialist with over 15 years scaling digital products across HealthTech, Fintech, and e-commerce. I build and lead high-performing design organizations and bridge user needs with business outcomes.
I've established UX/CX departments from the ground up and led cross-functional teams of 25+ designers and analysts, implementing Agile/Scrum design pods and career ladders. My leadership focuses on operations, mentorship, and fostering product-led growth cultures.
My work delivers measurable impact — examples include a 300% conversion lift, a 20% revenue increase for loyalty platforms, and raised NPS/CSAT by 20 points through continuous discovery and feedback loops. I specialize in CRO, design systems, and design operations.
I seek remote leadership opportunities for US-based organizations where I can drive product vision, streamline design-to-development workflows, and deliver scalable, data-driven improvements to conversion and lifetime value.
