.hello

My unconventional path into design brings a fresh perspective to problem-solving. I’ve led design across industries and product stages—each requiring a user-centered approach to create meaningful experiences.

I’m currently focused on leading teams, mentoring designers, and shaping product strategy through hands-on collaboration.


Before venturing into design - I've worked for 5 years in supply chain, logistics branding & merchandising within the sports retail industry.

Outside my profession, you'll often find me engaged in sports, travelling or enjoying quality time with my four-legged companion, keeping me constantly occupied.
