About me

I became a product designer because of my deep passion for problem-solving and storytelling. My journey into UX might seem unexpected, but it was a natural transition from my background in film production. As a producer, I thrived on crafting impactful stories and solving problems on set every day. However, I yearned to tackle real-world challenges, and I found the perfect balance in UX.

How I Design

Thinking beyond the box

I’m driven by the thrill of infusing fresh, innovative ideas into products. My goal is to bring uniqueness and creativity to every project, delivering valuable brand and business impact.

Evidence-driven decisions

For me, research goes beyond formulas. Even when resources are tight, I’m committed to uncovering insights that guide my design choices. For example, in developing IngrediCheck, I analyzed competitors' app reviews to extract actionable insights that informed my decisions.

Embracing collaboration and staying humble

I believe the best outcomes come from collaboration and an open mind. I keep communication open with team members, sharing my process frequently and seeking feedback to ensure alignment and improvement.
