I turn "this feels confusing" into "this just works."

I'm a Senior Product Designer who enjoys untangling messy problems, simplifying complex flows, and crafting experiences that feel effortless—even when they're anything but. I tend to ask why a lot, but it's usually in service of building something more thoughtful, more useful, and more human.

My sweet spot lies in B2C products, onboarding, and AI-powered experiences—spaces where small design decisions can have an outsized impact on how people engage, convert, and stay.

Outside of work, I'm often traveling, curating playlists, or quietly critiquing the UX of whatever I used last (sometimes deserved, sometimes not).

Activity Discovery — Making "Top 10 Things to Do" Immersive

The Problem

The 'tours, activities & experiences' segment is the third largest in the travel industry ($225B+), yet remains largely untapped. Static lists didn't convey what activities actually feel like, users bounced to YouTube/Instagram for validation, and engagement with experiences lagged far behind hotels & flights.

The Impact

0% Increase in interaction with activities
0% Uplift in click-through to detail pages
0% Increase in time on destination page

Car Rental Upgrades — Surfacing Affordable Value

The Problem

Users looking at car rentals on the product detail page lacked confidence to upgrade without restarting their search, causing missed revenue and decision friction. The hypothesis: if users can compare higher-tier cars and see the value difference directly on PDP, they'll upgrade without negatively impacting conversion.

The Impact

0% Upgrade attach rate lift
0% Revenue per visitor lift
0% Average order value lift

Font Subscription Management for Design Teams

The Problem

Design and advertising agencies rely heavily on premium fonts from platforms like Monotype, but managing access, licensing, and usage across teams is fragmented and risky. No clear visibility into who has access to what, non-compliant usage, and manual admin processes created both legal exposure and wasted time.

The Impact

0% Reduction in duplicate downloads
0% Increase in active font usage
0+ Team satisfaction NPS score
