Background

Experience

My career didn't follow a straight line — each discipline overlapped and fed the next. Industrial design taught me process and constraints. Graphic design taught me systems and identity. UX/UI gave me the digital language. Product brought it all together.

Furniture, plastic parts and commercial spaces. Client management, supplier negotiation, tight production deadlines. This is where I learned that design without constraints isn't design.

Background

About

I didn't start in digital. My first years were in industrial and graphic design — physical products, manufacturing constraints, client deadlines, real production. That background gave me something most UX/UI designers don't have: I know how things get made, and I know how to talk to the people who make them.

That foundation transferred directly into how I work in product. I understand constraints before I design around them. I can read a technical requirement from a provider, translate it into a flow, and hand it off to development without losing anything in between.

For the last 5 years I've been leading UX/UI and product design in fintech — building design systems, owning integrations with external providers, and shipping with dev teams. I stay close to production because that's where the real decisions happen.
