Designing for What Matters
A good design creates customer delight.
Today, AI can help build almost anything.
But what I bring as a designer, along with the full AI toolkit,
is the ability to create those moments of unexpected customer delight.
The kind that feels intuitive, personal, and lasting.
I focus on uncovering unmet needs.
Not just what users ask for, but what truly helps them.
I turn those insights into thoughtful, usable, and meaningful experiences.
I've designed for healthcare, creator platforms, and enterprise systems.
What connects all of it is a systems thinking mindset and a deep curiosity
to understand people, processes, and what makes good design work in the real world.
Design is not one fixed path for me.
It's a journey shaped by listening, adapting, and creating with purpose.
