About
Designing digital solutions from concept to launch with 4 years working with SaaS, B2B, AI, sustainability, and food. Experienced in leading UX, visual, and product design at startups and with businesses to make things easier, appealing, and genuinely useful for people. I blend product thinking, human-centered design, and behavioral psychology to drive my problem-solving process. I’ve led team workshops, design reviews, and EPD meetings to keep everyone aligned and projects moving in the right direction. My previous marketing background gives me a solid foundation in business acumen, content strategy, and research - skills I still rely on to make smarter design decisions (and ask better questions). Currently practicing first principles thinking and product management, listening to startup and business podcasts, and building side projects for fun in Cursor, Lovable, and other AI tools :')
