Back to original languageAbout Damian
Senior UX/Product Designer, bilingual English, specializing in complex digital products.
I help teams design useful, fluid, and consistent experiences by clarifying needs, structuring user journeys, and reducing friction from the initial scoping phases. My approach also relies on data, usage analysis, and KPIs to confirm or invalidate hypotheses, measure the impact of design choices, and verify the quality of solutions over time.
I also bring a strong ability to bridge product, business, and front-end, translating complex needs into functional rules, journeys, interfaces, and actionable solutions.
I also develop advanced AI-assisted prototyping workflows (Claude code), by structuring design systems, style guides, components, and front-end constraints to quickly produce coherent, credible, and increasingly actionable prototypes for development teams.
Specialized in Product Design, with over 13 years of experience in digital and an initial background in web design and digital marketing.

- Le roi du matelasE-commerce Site Redesign Mission (CX/ UX/ UI)RETAIL (SMALL BUSINESS)January 2023 - May 2023 (4 months)Lille, FranceInitially, Le Roi du Matelas (LRDM) engaged my services to make user interface corrections.But my role as a consultant shouldn't be limited to UI. I immediately asked questions to go further and challenge the existing setup.Following a site audit, an analysis of their sales performance via Google Analytics, and a competitive benchmark, I quickly diagnosed issues and proposed solutions.Objective: Boost sales by optimizing CX (Customer Experience)/ UX/UIObservation: After an in-depth analysis of their analytics (Google Analytics), I noticed that the purchase funnel abandonment rate occurred at the cart stage.Analysis: These observations allowed me to identify a number of friction points supported by empirical arguments from UX principles (particularly drawing from the invaluable NNgroup).My Intervention:- Product page redesign (better exposure of essential information)- Creation of a mini-cart (allowing confirmation of the 'add to cart' action and cross-selling opportunities)- Cart page redesign (more transparency on shipping costs for a better conversion rate)- Checkout/Payment page redesign (customer information, shipping, and payment form on a single, step-by-step page).- Mobile optimization (addition of a sticky 'add to cart' button)- Technical feasibility (presentation to the dev team + creation of a decision-making tool based on criticality and technical complexity index).Results (development in progress):- According to NNgroup, the sticky 'add to cart' button increases mobile sales by over 8%.- Very likely increase in conversion rates at each key stage throughout the customer journey.Conclusion: A very enjoyable team effort in collaboration with the highly competent digital and marketing director at Le Roi Du Matelas :)
