About

I have over 20 years of experience in IT, with a decade in executive roles as a product owner and head of design. My expertise lies in UI/UX product design and product ownership, allowing me to take a comprehensive, customer-focused approach to creating high-quality, user-friendly products. I've worked with top-tier brands such as NASCAR, Activision-Blizzard, and Chelsea, successfully scaling design systems that increased product KPIs and reduced costs. I also launched a profitable B2B/B2C marketplace for designers and artists, blending my entrepreneurial spirit with my deep knowledge of market needs. My leadership experience includes mentoring design teams, building strong collaborations with international partners, and scaling corporate design systems using tools like Figma and Sketch. I have led design for mobile apps, SaaS platforms, eCommerce, and many other product types across various industries, including healthcare, insurance, real estate, and AI. I thrive in cross-functional teams, where I can seamlessly switch between creative and analytical thinking to drive product innovation and achieve strategic goals.
