I’m a Product Designer with over 15 years of experience working across e-commerce, fintech, and growth-driven products.

Throughout my career, I’ve led several end-to-end design initiatives — from discovery to delivery — partnering closely with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to ship meaningful outcomes.

My work focuses on simplifying complexity, improving conversion, and unlocking new revenue opportunities through thoughtful UX and experimentation.

More recently, I’ve been expanding my impact beyond execution — contributing to product strategy, mentoring designers, and helping teams build scalable design systems.

On a personal note, I'm a proud dad of two, a rocker, an amateur guitarist, and a soccer fanatic living in denial that my team is actually the best in the world.

Skills that bridge design and business impact.
