About

I am a Senior Product Designer with over 5 years of experience leading digital initiatives across sectors such as finance, healthcare, logistics, commerce, and beauty in 4 countries. Currently, I work at Angola’s second-largest bank, where I led features generating over $25M USD in just 3 months, impacting users across 7 countries. I am skilled in user-centered design, product discovery, UX research, and scalable digital solution leadership. I maintain a strong focus on impact, consistency, and speed throughout the product lifecycle.

My passion lies in creating high-impact user-centered digital products and driving innovation in emerging contexts. I founded a design studio focused on delivering meaningful digital experiences and have collaborated with institutions such as Angola’s Ministry of Health and Ministry of Agriculture, impacting national-level projects.
