Freelance Lead UX Designer

During the discovery phase, I support you in empathising with customers and needs, creating potential directions, and rendering ideas tangible for validation. The outcome empowers you to make well-informed business decisions and ensures the development of the right solution.

On the management side, I can navigate your design team through the design process and find the right balance between the product, processes, and team dynamics.

During the design execution, I can blend into your team, work with them side by side ideating and creating screens, flows, design systems, and prototypes using UX and UI design to make products come to life.
