Strengths
My skill set spans design, research, and product management, allowing me to create delightful interactions while also analyzing products from both a user experience and business perspective, making me a strong contributor to product decisions. I use these strengths to tackle complex problems, balancing data-driven logic with creativity and a sense of play.
I’ve worked across various stages of the product development cycle, from building 0 → 1 products for startups and individual clients to scaling and refining features at larger companies. Regardless of the product or partner, I strive to align user needs with business goals to create work that resonates and delivers value.
Aside from being a designer, I am also a backpacker, photographer, and a craft beer enthusiast.
