About

I’m a UI/UX Designer with hands-on experience delivering enterprise SaaS dashboards, AI-augmented workflows, and accessibility-first, inclusive user interfaces. At SPHERE, I drove initiatives that boosted task success by 40%, improved CSAT by 17%, and cut onboarding time by 30%, demonstrating a focus on measurable outcomes and UX impact at scale. I specialize in making complex, data-heavy systems intuitive and actionable through data-informed design decisions, modular design systems, and cross-functional partnership with product, engineering, and QA. My approach blends UX strategy, user research, and iterative testing to align user needs with business objectives. I’ve integrated GPT-4 and AI tools into the design process to accelerate ideation, prototype smarter, and craft human-centered AR experiences, task schedulers, and role-based access flows. Currently, I’m exploring AI-driven productivity agents, bringing empathy, clarity, and scalability to emerging digital experiences.
