What I do,
the work,
and how I got here.
(briefly)

My proficiency allows me to effectively craft complex back-office interfaces, manage their underlying processes, and create bespoke design systems specifically for SaaS companies.

In the last two years, I've partnered with teams in the renewable energy field, focusing on creating web SaaS applications and other projects linked to energy.

Prior to that, I worked at a travel agency, designing a WYSIWYG website builder tool.

Early in my career, I functioned as a freelancer on numerous projects, some of which are showcased below.

Tool stack

Over the years tools have evolved and so did I. Today my main tool for designing and prototyping is Figma. When I have the opportunity I use Protopie to show off high fidelity designs. Recently I’ve picked up Framer to create my portfolio website. For metrics, and research I use Hotjar, but when I have the chance I schedule interviews with target users and use google documents & forms.





tl;dr

Generally I try to be tool agnostic, and Im eager to see what will be the next industry standard for designing better experiences.

Process and methods

There is no standard process that I can define for every project. Since shipping a product is a team effort I try to fit the project needs as much as possible given the project resources, and the people involved.

It is my responsibility to determine if I have enough data to begin iterating the design based on the methods of design thinking principles.

tl;dr

I always push for as much end-user feedback as possible, and plan my work accordingly to the resources that are available.

Over the years I’ve collaborated with dozens of clients, but over the past 7 years I’ve brought my skills to companies in order to become a team player.

About me

I grew up on computer games and building LEGO Technics which developed in me a passion to create, appreciate good design and to constantly ask the question:
“How does it work?“

Today I use my passion to work with people and create meaningful experiences and tools.
