About me
Manifesto
My approach
01
Understand the problem
Users, data and context before design.
Before proposing solutions, I work to understand the full context: users, business goals and system constraints. I analyze data, talk to stakeholders and spot friction points to make sure we're solving the right problem.
02
Define the strategy
Aligning user needs with business impact.
Starting from the problem, I translate needs into product hypotheses and design opportunities. I prioritize by impact, align teams and stakeholders, and set a clear direction and measurable goals before moving on to visual solutions.
03
Design solutions
Clear experiences, even when the problem isn't.
I design flows, structures and experiences that run processes with many moving parts into understandable interactions. I iterate with prototypes, validations and continuous feedback to build scalable, usable solutions.
04
Measure and improve
Continuous iteration based on results
A product isn't finished at launch. I analyze results, listen to users and spot opportunities for improvement. Based on those learnings, I optimize the experience to keep increasing the product's impact.
