For over two decades, I've navigated the evolving landscape of digital design - from graphic design roots to product design leadership. My journey spans interface and web design, full-stack development, and deep expertise in experimentation, with nine years dedicated to A/B testing and data-oriented design.

As a certified Design Sprint facilitator, I lead teams in crafting impactful user experiences across B2C and B2B sectors. Whether speaking at industry conferences, mentoring at universities, or leading product teams, I champion a philosophy that balances user-centric design with measurable business outcomes.

My approach combines the precision of a craftsperson with the strategic vision of a product leader, ensuring that beautiful experiences are also purposeful and impactful.
