I design digital experiences for people who live real, messy lives moving between countries, changing plans, opening apps on tired laptops, and still expecting things to work.

Ive spent 8 years designing digital products across fintech, retail, and B2B.
A big part of my work was done in collaboration with international teams and enterprise clients often under NDA, through a design agency.
Ive worked on complex design systems, improved outdated user flows, and helped turn messy legacy into clear, usable, and scalable products.

My laptop is my constant, my dogs — my grounding.

A playful dog lying on a couch, with its belly up and legs in the air, appearing relaxed and content.

Living this way teaches one thing very quickly:

clutter costs energy

bad UX costs patience

unclear decisions cost trust

Years spent working on complex products taught me that the strongest design decisions rarely happen in isolation.

Good work comes from asking better questions, making trade-offs visible, and involving people early. That’s the approach I carry into every project now.

  1. I’m not a “just make it pretty” designer.

  1. I don’t follow trends or guidelines blindly.

  1. I’m not comfortable with fake urgency or last-minute chaos.
