Experienced UX/UI designer with a focus on creating delightful user experiences. Over the last five years as a freelance designer, I've collaborated with startups in industries such as ed-tech, healthcare, e-commerce, entertainment, and marketing. Founders seek my expertise to enhance their current app experience, conceptualize and launch an MVP, or design new features for their applications. Prior to being a contract designer, I worked as a full time product designer at a Los Angeles-based software consultancy.
I work closely with development teams from initial concepts through implementation and iteration. I use Figma for app design, component library creation, and prototyping. I also provide product strategy services including ideation sessions, user research and user testing, and insights for innovation.
Client feedback speaks volumes: "Thank you for helping us secure the next round of funding" and "Professional, responsive, and consistently, accommodating our timeline and budget.”
