About

UX/UI Designer with 4+ years of experience, backed by 7 years in engineering, sales, and frontend development (React, JavaScript). I bring a product-growth mindset, design with implementation in mind, speak the language of developers, and align stakeholders around business goals and user needs.

I work end-to-end on UX and UI—from research and information architecture to prototyping, design systems, and post-launch usability testing—while collaborating closely with PO/PM/BA, engineering, QA, and marketing to improve usability, accessibility, and measurable outcomes.
