Product-focused Senior UX/UI Designer with 6 years of hands-on experience designing complex B2B SaaS and desktop tools, primarily in the engineering and technical space. I enjoy translating complex workflows into simple, usable solutions. My design decisions are shaped by direct input from users and collaboration with developers and the product team.
I've worked across the full design lifecycle: user research, sketching, prototyping, testing, delivery, and I'm comfortable owning design end to end. This includes contributing to global design systems, leading large-scale redesigns from scratch, and helping grow design maturity in product teams.
In my next role, my goal is to lead design efforts in a team that's keen on solving real problems and creating products that genuinely improve how people work.
