My career in logos
My design mindset
Great design goes way beyond UI – it’s about uncovering problems to identify opportunities, exploring solutions driven by data and the latest technology. I am passionate about crafting strategic product improvements that bring positive changes in user behavior and business metrics.
Collaboration and user involvement are at the core of my work. I involve stakeholders through various methods I combine from Basecamp’s Shape Up, This is Service Design Doing, The Design Sprint and Gamestorming.
During product discovery, I immerse myself in the domain, business, and problem space. I often revisit Inspired to shape my approach.
I continuously sharpen my product sense through trainings and insights from Lenny’s Newsletter and Silicon Valley Product Group.
My services
I help teams shape purposeful, user-centered products — from early research to refined interfaces. I now work independently through Salty Minds, where I partner with companies on UX audits, accessibility, and product strategy with a hands-on, collaborative approach. Designing with purpose, creativity and ocean energy.
