About me
Making technology feel human.
I am a Strategic Product Designer dedicated to creating experiences that make users feel comfortable, understood, and at ease. I don't just solve problems; I decode the human needs behind them.
With over 6 years of experience in the product field, I speak the languages of Business, Engineering, and Design fluently. I have navigated the agility of early-stage ventures and the complexity of large-scale enterprises in Travel, E-commerce, and Fintech.
My approach is grounded in Psychology. I leverage my MSc to analyse user behaviour and my technical roots to ensure feasibility. My goal is simple: to transform chaotic business requirements into elegant, evidence-based solutions that empower users and drive growth.

Foundation
BSc in Information Management & Systems
Gained a strong grounding in technical logic and systems thinking. I learned to assess feasibility and structure complex information—skills that now help me bridge the gap between design concepts and engineering reality.

Experience
6 Years of Product Strategy & Design
Thrived in the fast-paced tech landscape, operating as a hybrid Product Lead across start-ups and major tech firms. I didn't just define business requirements; I owned the user experience, prototyping solutions and driving product lifecycles from 0-to-1.

Turning Point
Sabbatical & Professional Reflection
Took a deliberate pause to recharge. This period shifted my lens from simply delivering results to questioning the human impact of technology. I kept my skills sharp by upgrading my tech stack and offering strategic consultancy, maintaining professional momentum alongside personal growth.

Deepening
MSc in Psychology
Driven by a deep curiosity about human behaviour, I moved to the UK to formalise my understanding of why people act the way they do. This wasn't just about theory; it was about gaining the empathy and insight needed to create experiences that truly resonate with users.

Integrating AI & Design Practice
The theory is now merged with practice. I am currently exploring AI-driven workflows to close the gap between design and code. My toolkit is complete—upgraded with psychological insights and new tech stacks—and I am ready to bring this evolved perspective back into product design team.
