What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, where I can leverage my design skills to create impactful user experiences while contributing to a dynamic team.

I am a Product Designer with an MSc in Computer Science and a BSc in Finance, bringing over 6 years of experience in designing intuitive, user-centered products, particularly for SaaS and data-heavy platforms. My journey has been marked by a commitment to understanding user needs and translating complex datasets into engaging digital experiences.

At Yagro, I led the design of tools that empower users to make informed decisions based on complex agricultural data. My key achievements include the development of the AI Yagro Yield Forecaster and the redesign of the YAGRO Dashboard, which significantly enhanced user engagement. I pride myself on my ability to collaborate closely with engineers to create scalable design systems that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
