01 — About

Designed for the user.
Built for the business.

Design isn't just what I do — it's how I think. I care about the details, the users, and the impact of every pixel. Every product I've ever worked on, I've treated as my own. From energy providers and onboarding flows to blockchain prediction platforms and AI-powered marketplaces — I go deep. I learn the domain, understand the users, map the edge cases, and then design something so clear it feels like it was always obvious.

That obsession is what took me from junior UX designer to leading product design for startups and scale-ups — and it's what makes me different.

My favourite part of the day? Brainstorming with my team. The whiteboard sessions, the "what if we tried this" moments, the shared wins.

A story I'm proud of

I designed Rolle's marketplace end-to-end as a Senior UX Designer for Trebbble. The founders were so happy with the work, they asked me to join as their in-house Senior Product Designer a couple of years later.

What started as a UX project in 2022, designing a second-hand device marketplace, turned into a full-time role when Rolle pivoted into an AI-powered platform in 2025. When your client recruits you, that's the review that matters.

03 — What I bring

Everything a senior product designer
needs, and then some.

End-to-end product design

From discovery and research through wireframes, prototyping, visual design, and handoff. I own the full cycle.

Design systems at scale

I've built design systems from zero — tokens, typography, icons, components — and maintained them as living foundations.

Cross-functional collaboration

I work shoulder-to-shoulder with PMs, engineers, and stakeholders. I present, I listen, I adapt.

User research & testing

Personas, user flows, usability testing, competitive analysis. I design with evidence, not assumptions.

UX writing & content design

Every button label, error message, and onboarding line — I write copy that sounds human and guides without friction.

Information architecture

Complex products need clear structure. I obsess over navigation, hierarchy, and making sure users never feel lost.

My Figma files are a joy to navigate. My tickets are clear. My process is transparent.

I don't just meet the brief — I push it. More options, better solutions, thoughtful extras that weren't asked for.
