What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can bridge customer needs with innovative, value-driven product solutions—combining UI/UX, technical sales enablement, and visualization engineering to deliver sales-ready demos and roadmap impact.

I’m a creative, detail-driven designer with over a decade of experience leading customer engagements, UI/UX design initiatives, and visualization engineering within the software and embedded systems sectors. I’m known for blending design acumen with technical consulting to deliver compelling demonstrations, build trusted customer relationships, and translate business challenges into product opportunities.

As Principal Designer, UI/UX at The Qt Company, I help shape the design vision and philosophy for new Qt Design Tools, executing visually compelling, industry-tailored demos across Automotive, Medical, Aerospace & Defense, and IoT. I partner with product and engineering leadership on long-term roadmaps, represent design in cross-functional forums, and translate technical capabilities into sales-ready materials—championing customer-driven innovation that improved cross-platform design workflows, customer satisfaction, and feature adoption. Previously, as a Solutions Consultant/Client Engagement at 3DEXCITE, I delivered high-fidelity visualization and interactive experiences using Unreal Engine, Unity, WebGL, and proprietary pipelines, including AR/VR and WebGL assets that supported conversion and training. Earlier roles as a Senior/Lead 3D Visualization Engineer focused on end-to-end 3D asset creation, performance/scalability optimization, MathCAD/NURBS optimization, and workflow improvements such as PLM data extraction—strengthening delivery speed and collaboration between design and development teams.
