Informed Product Designer with 6+ years’ experience leading end-to-end product design to improve checkout and booking conversion, reduce booking friction, and scale design systems across B2C & B2B travel technology and mobile app environments. Adept at UX research, usability testing, prototyping, and cross-functional collaboration to ship product features and strengthen user decision-making. I’ve redesigned complex journeys (discovery, availability, booking, payment) and built scalable Figma design systems to increase consistency and reduce repetitive work. I thrive in fast-moving, multi-stakeholder product settings—turning ambiguous problems into clear information architecture, interaction patterns, and measurable outcomes.
