about
I have spent the last 10 years designing digital and physical products, with my architectural background providing a solid foundation in design thinking and product management.
I excel in navigating the complexities of both B2B and B2C domains, fostering cross-functional collaboration, and enhancing user and business value.
Beyond work, I am constantly exploring new tools and mediums, notably developing a widely adopted Figma accessibility plugin, reaching over 50,000 users worldwide.
my superpowers
systems thinking
I can navigate complex projects with lots of ambiguity. I see how my work connects to other systems and think through possible use cases.
communication
I can confidently present my work to senior stakeholders, explain design decisions to different audiences and adapt language accordingly.
cross-team collaboration
I identify and invite stakeholders to the design process early on by running workshops and getting feedback on early ideas.
customer iq
I find innovative ways to approach users, even with no official research budget and base my decisions on real-world data.
