Currently, I'm a Senior Product Designer at Monks leading design projects for Apple as a contractor, collaborating with some crazy talented folks on turning high-quality software into bold digital experiences.
But my story didn't start here. I started off in 2014 as a software developer. Over the years, I've worked in the intersection between code and design, until through self-study, I went beyond: applying my experience as a developer to craft pixel-perfect layouts, and be a bridge between both worlds.
Today, I pride myself on having been part of such a broad range of amazing projects across various clients from different industries and am always eager to face new, even bigger challenges.

Being experienced in multiple types of digital projects, I know there are no silver bullets when it comes to UX strategy. Crafting methods and unique workflows to each project, from research and analysis, to rapidly producing prototypes; knowing when to apply pixel-perfect attention to detail, and when to make low fidelity sketches and mockups.
As a system thinker and perfectionist, making precise rational decisions is intrinsic to me, making the creating of pixel-perfect layouts and unified design languages something natural. Also, as a developer, I thrive by being a bridge between teams, being able to translate complex design decisions into simple technical language that makes collaboration much easier.
In the strong belief that people should come first in what we do, I lead end-to-end design processes through collaboration. By partnering closely with engineering, product, and business teams to build the best solution possible for the user, together.
Having been working with both big and small company's across a wide range of industries, I thrive in combining business strategy and user necessities. Knowing when and where to make compromises and make strategic design decisions.
