My Expertise

<aside> 🏢 SaaS

</aside>

Designing for SaaS (software-as-a-service) experiences has been my focus since 2017.

A good product is functional, usable, robust, modular, maintainable and builds confidence and trust.

<aside> ♟️ Design Ops

</aside>

Design ops is the key to scaling product design and design teams, and is ultimately about getting solutions to the users in the most efficient way.

<aside> 🎙️ UX Research

</aside>

I’m a firm believer in defining user and business problems first, before putting pen to the paper — and you can’t get to the heart of a problem without research.

<aside> 🤖 Cross-device design

</aside>

I have had startup and agency experience designing for multiple consumer products, especially for mobile.

Cross-device design isn’t just about scaling to multiple devices. It’s about meeting needs where they exist, and is a huge accelerator of growth.
