Summary
Product Design (UX/UI) | Service Design | AI-assisted Design Process | Design Systems
Leading end-to-end design for complex B2B/B2C and enterprise products. I turn ambiguous, cross-functional challenges into measurable business results by bridging strategy and execution — with deep domain expertise.
My core value lies in a dual lens on Product & Service Design: I don't stop at the interface — I think the customer journey through consistently, connecting what users touch with the product and the service behind it. That's why the solutions I design aren't just usable - they're built to scale.
I use AI deliberately as a lever: to sharpen the UX itself, to create AI-assisted workflows/processes and to accelerate my own workflow (research, prototyping, and UX/UI design). Throughout, I work with empathy and stay impact-driven, grounding every decision in real user needs and data.
The result: a designer who brings both craft and systems-thinking to the table.
