Personal Project

A journey that I started with in 2015, and am still learning with it and trying to make my vision become feasible, while bootstrapping.

Coming Soon

By being a trusted player maker between cross-functional teams, my goal is to come up with solutions that are viable, desirable, and technically feasible

Viable

I turn complexity into clarity by defining focused bets that speed up time-to-first value, lift adoption and retention, cut service and maintenance costs -- while meeting security, privacy, and legal requirements.

Desirable

Uncover what users cannot always articulate. Translate subtle cues and data signals into intuitive experiences that delight customers, by plain language and design psychology.

Feasible

Bridge vision with execution by aligning stakeholders through storytelling and practical design tools (AI when useful). Deliver tactics and strategy with clarity and precision through staged rollouts, clear ownership, and simple governance.

My Journey

Four chapters that shaped my approach to design and leadership

From Sound- to Product Design

I started out studying sound design, where I learned how harmony, rhythm, and small details could change how people feel and act. This foundation has shaped how I now approach digital products, treating every interaction like part of a bigger composition.

Key Takeaways

Harmony by design
Cues in tone and voice
Details elevate experiences

My Design Thinking

Passionate about uncovering underlying pain points and turning insights into actionable and measurable outcomes.

Research

Rapid sprints across journeys, ops/legal, and the market. I frame decision-ready bets with OKRs/KPIs and clear kill/scale criteria, backed by qualitative and quantitative data.

Strategic Vision

Turning insights into a practical North Star and a portfolio of measurable bets. Design principles, guardrails, and KPIs are codified so teams can move with clarity, ship safely, and scale what works.

Collaborative Execution

Run small, cross-functional workshops that turn insight into decisions and cross-tribe/LoB tickets. Psychological safety with defined roles, risks, and deadlines keep momentum; for big rooms I use pre-reads or short videos and join for Q&A.

Thrive in outcome-focused teams

Not just handoff and theory, I am passionate about end-to-end outcomes. I align cross-tribe/LoB priorities on what's desirable, feasible, and viable, then ship and iterate for measurable business, customer, and societal impacts.

Testimonials

Connection drives performance, especially across end-to-end customer journeys and cross-tribe/LoB efforts. I do my best work with down-to-earth, but high performers, who turn the process into joyful, inspiring and valuable outcome.
