Senior UI/UX Designer with 6+ years of experience across iGaming, SaaS, and E-commerce. The kind of designer who thinks in systems but sweats the details - from gamification mechanics and loyalty flows to design systems and conversion-focused interfaces. Past work includes casino and sportsbook products, VIP/loyalty programs, onboarding experiences, and multi-page web platforms for US and European clients. Comfortable owning projects end-to-end - research, wireframes, UI, handoff - and keeping things moving across time zones. AI is a regular part of the toolkit: Claude, ChatGPT, Figma AI, Freepik AI, Gemini, ElevenLabs, CapCut - used daily to speed up production, generate visuals, and stay ahead on creative quality. Available for remote Senior UI/UX roles - full-time, part-time, freelance, or outstaffing.
