About
I didn't fall into design. I got obsessed with a product and couldn't stop thinking about why parts of it felt broken, and what I'd do differently. That obsession didn't go away. So I leaned into it. I taught myself the fundamentals, picked up Figma, and started building. Not mockups for the sake of a portfolio, actual end-to-end product flows, from the first blank frame to something that felt real and shippable. That process hooked me completely. Today I work as a UI/UX designer specialising in SaaS products. I take things from zero, no existing design system, no established patterns, just a problem worth solving, and build toward something that works. Fast prototyping, tight feedback loops with founders and PMs, and a habit of getting more invested in the problem than most people expect a designer to be. What I bring to the table: → End-to-end 0 to 1 product design for SaaS → Fast prototyping and stakeholder iteration → Full-flow UX, from user research to final handoff → Figma, design systems, and component thinking → Working directly with product and business teams I'm currently looking for a full-time UI/UX or Product Designer role at a SaaS company where design is taken seriously, not just as decoration, but as the thing that makes a product actually work. If you're building something and need a designer who gets genuinely invested in what they're working on, let's talk.
