About Damien

Hello !
I am Damien, a designer based in Paris.

I collaborate to design practical UX solutions — with a touch of strategy — leveraging user research, UX design, and creativity since 2018.

How can I help?
  • I conduct user research and initiate processes to identify best practices and support transformation,
  • I design user experiences collaboratively. Mapping/workshops: prototypes.
  • I support, guide, and lead any challenge towards its objectives with appropriate methodologies and diverse approaches.

Seven years of shared expertise in B2B, B2C with decision-makers and design teams.

I have spent the last 7 years collaborating with a variety of clients, ranging fromlarge corporationstoscale-ups**, including **start-ups**, in the **finance**, **e-commerce**, and **publicsectors.

After a year 2025 focused on training — Master's in Design Thinking at the Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées — during which I assisted Vinci and its innovation branch Forecast Leonard in studying an emerging market to transform its business: Real Estate as a Service.

My drivers:
  • Identify/understand business objectives, user behaviors, and align the design approach to support these objectives.
  • Collaborate collectively with stakeholders to develop solutions,
  • Support transformation and find appropriate answers to address change.
From user research to strategy, through UX/UI design and facilitation, I illuminate decision-making and rationalize processes to effectively deliver desired and viable products or services to the market.
