A little bit about me...

Product Design Lead with 15+ years of experience humanizing software across enterprise SaaS, fashion, fintech, healthcare, DevOps, retail, e-commerce, and eSports. I’ve designed platforms serving millions of users by combining user research, iterative prototyping, and data-driven insights to simplify complex workflows. I’ve led design teams in startups and agile environments, mentoring designers and fostering collaboration through empathy and active listening. With roots in fine art and a strong foundation in usability, I bridge aesthetics with functionality—especially in dense, technical systems.

— The best products begin with the user—and never lose sight of them.
