About

After earning my law degree, I found my passion in UX/UI design and it was love at first sight. Since 2016, I’ve dedicated myself to growing in this dynamic field, honing my skills in design, collaboration, and technology across fintech, logistics, and SaaS industries. I firmly believe in teamwork and continuous learning.

Today, I lead product design initiatives, working closely with cross-functional teams to develop innovative products, build design systems, and improve user experiences. I enjoy driving clarity and structure in product development and bringing ideas to life through thoughtful design.

Timeline & Status
2024

Overview
Veriam (previously Metrics Matter) is a newly formed SaaS company focusing on Identity and Access Management, Licensing, Billing, Contracting and Payments. Assigned legal documents grant access and permissions to view particular data. In order to do this, the legal documents need to be added and managed by a Service Provider and accepted by a Service Consumer.

Goal
Create a process that allows a Service Provider to easily add and manage legal documents as well as easily allow a Service Consumer user to to accept the Terms and Conditions of the legal documents.

Problem
Legal documents, Policies and Agreements all give the user permission in some sense to view particular data. The assumption is that it can be confusing when trying to understand the difference between them and when to use which option.
