About
As a Senior UX/UI Designer, I help seed-stage startups in FinTech, HealthTech, PropTech, Marketplaces and AI space transform their software into products that customers love. I focus on making experiences seamless, intuitive, and visually distinct—helping founders get closer to product/market fit through design that not only looks great but drives real business impact. Beyond design, I’m building platd.io, a platform empowering food creators and nutritionists to monetize their recipe content. Whether I’m refining an interface or crafting a new feature, my goal is always the same: creating products that feel effortless to use and stand out from the competition. When I’m not deep in Figma, you’ll find me working out, cooking, playing padel, or dancing salsa and bachata. Always open to connecting with ambitious founders - let's build something great together!
