Services and history

As a Product Designer with over 5 years of experience, I have excelled in shaping user experiences through meticulous UI/UX design, while maintaining a keen interest in the IoT and physical product design.

My expertise in creating and refining design systems has significantly reduced inconsistencies by 40% and enhanced user engagement by 30%. Guiding teams toward innovation, I've seamlessly integrated machine learning and AI technologies to augment design processes and product functionality, culminating in designs that not only meet business objectives but also resonate with users on a deeper level.
