— EXPERIENCE
20+
years of experience solving problems through curiosity and design-led thinking.
1K+
of digital goods launched online — from banner ads to websites to apps and software.
300+
days of leading and coaching a team of happy designers in a remote environment.
The three important lessons I have learned from my journey as a dedigner are: (1) how to apply design-thinking and / or a user-centered approach in every design process to help companies make better decisions and build the right products and services for the right people, (2) how to make clear and well-defined goals to help teams contribute to company's objectives and results, and (3) how to translate ideas into meaningful design experiences.
Currently at Toptal (core team) as a Product Design Lead. / View my LinkedIn profile for a complete work history. / Available ONLY for part-time remote collaboration work.
