Product-focused designer and automation engineer with 6+ years of experience delivering user-centered experiences and AI-powered workflows.

What I focus on:


Product thinking:
Understanding user needs, shaping workflows, and turning ideas into clear product decisions.

UI/UX and visual design:
Designing interfaces, brand assets, and presentation-ready visuals that make products feel polished and usable.

Automation and operations:
Building systems with Airtable, Zapier, OpenAI, Slack and Gmail that remove manual work and keep teams moving.

How I work:

  • Clear user journeys and practical product decisions.
  • Automation that reduces repetitive manual work.
  • Web builds only where they support the product outcome.
