ABOUT

My background brings together 10 years of expertise in designing intuitive, multi-platform systems across mobile and web, alongside an additional decade in industrial design for impactful consumer and medical products. I'm driven by a passion for creating cohesive, end-to-end experiences and am particularly inspired by the challenges of complex systems, AI/ML, SaaS, and the convergence of digital and physical UX.
