User Experience Lead

I’m always excited to be part of a team of ambitious, like-minded

technologists. I’m passionate about the intersection of design and

technology. I want to have a meaningful contribution to any work

environment, whether startups, agencies or big organizations.

I always have in mind that we are living in a fast-paced environment

and collaboration is a must. I have a user-centric mindset throughout

the design process. I keep asking and reminding myself: How can I

make a difference in my big company? I’m only one contributor.
