Senior UX Designer with 10+ years of experience crafting intuitive, scalable digital products across enterprise AI platforms, financial infrastructure, and global consulting environments. My focus is end-to-end UX — research, interaction design, Figma prototyping, and design systems — with a track record of reducing user friction, improving task efficiency, and influencing product strategy through data-driven decisions.

01 / 05How I work

Start from the mental model, not the screen

The hardest part of designing for AI-driven, data-heavy platforms isn't the UI — it's figuring out how the people using it already think about the problem. I run research and journey mapping before wireframes, not after.

Design systems are a product decision, not a chore

A shared, reusable Figma system across an enterprise platform's 3 product modules cut design-to-dev handoff time by 40%. Consistency compounds — it's usually the highest-leverage thing I can build early.

Compliance and constraints are design inputs, not obstacles

Designing for a regulated financial platform means the interface has to satisfy compliance requirements, not route around them. Structured stakeholder workshops up front save far more time than late-stage rework.
