I turn complex SaaS problems into clear, buildable products.
With 6+ years of experience, I lead product design from problem framing and user research to scalable systems and polished execution. I work closely with product and engineering teams, and use AI-assisted prototyping to reduce handoff gaps and move ideas toward production faster.
