I am a Design Leader and Builder dedicated to the synergy of UX, business strategy, and technology.

About me

I am a Design Leader and Builder dedicated to the synergy of UX, business strategy, and technology. With over 15 years of experience, I help organizations de-risk innovation and scale products through systems-thinking. By aligning user-centric design with commercial objectives, I ensure every product decision serves as a strategic step toward optimal business performance.

Multidisciplinary & Global Perspective

My career spans diverse industries — including Robotics, Healthcare, FinTech, TelCo and AdTech — and both B2B and B2C sectors. Having lived in six countries and mastered six languages, I bring a rare multicultural perspective to design challenges. This global "360-degree" lens allows me to navigate complex user behaviors and lead diverse teams with empathy and clarity.

Strategic Impact & Execution

I specialize in elevating design maturity within organizations. Whether I am optimizing high-traffic user journeys for millions of customers or architecting scalable design systems, my focus remains on driving measurable results. My hands-on approach covers the entire product lifecycle:

- Discovery: Aligning design strategy with high-level business goals.
- Design: Creating delightful, high-fidelity experiences and robust systems.
- Execution: Leveraging a technical background to contribute from research through to UI development.

Innovation & Entrepreneurship

Beyond design leadership, I am a former startup co-founder and a US patent holder. This entrepreneurial mindset ensures that I don't just design interfaces; I build sustainable, innovative solutions that solve real-world problems.
