I help turn complex problems into simple, high-impact products. With a decade of experience and a software engineering background, I don't just design interfaces—I create solutions that make workflows smoother, reduce friction, and drive real results. I’ve worked across industries from healthcare to logistics, always starting with understanding user needs and translating them into designs that people actually enjoy using. Research-driven and hands-on, I focus on making products both useful and delightful.
