    ABOUT ME

    THE STORYBEHIND
    THE DESIGN

    Product Designer with 15+ years across fintech, e-commerce, and developer platforms. Founding designer at 360 Finance, where I built the design practice and design system from the ground up and owned product design end-to-end — from discovery through shipped, engineered UI. I'm at my best turning ambiguous, complex workflows into clear products, and I work closely with the code — prototyping, writing front-end code, and building alongside engineering.

    Effective product design extends beyond aesthetics; it requires a comprehensive understanding of user needs, business objectives, and technological possibilities.

    I love engineers.
    I love pizza.
    I love Halloween.
    I love lamp.
    I love solving problems.
