What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, allowing me to innovate and lead impactful design projects.

I am a Senior Product Designer with over 8 years of experience specializing in user-centric design for consumer tech, ed-tech, and digital products. My journey has been marked by a commitment to crafting scalable systems and high-impact interfaces that resonate with users of all ages. At Miko, I led the end-to-end design for Miko 3 and Miko Mini, including companion apps that have positively impacted over 300,000 children across 140 countries.

My work has been recognized with prestigious awards, including a Gold at the Mom’s Choice Awards® and the Independent Toy Awards for Miko 3. I take pride in building comprehensive design systems and mentoring junior designers, ensuring that our product tone aligns seamlessly with user expectations. My passion for design extends beyond aesthetics; I focus on creating engaging experiences that drive user engagement and satisfaction.
