About

Senior UX designer with eight years across consumer fintech and SaaS. Recently affected by layoffs in the design industry. Looking for remote opportunities, freelance projects, and meaningful collaborations.

I'm most useful when I can sit between product, research, and engineering — turning fuzzy problems into clear flows. Currently exploring how AI-assisted tooling changes the role of a designer, and writing about it as I go.
