About Hontil

Product Designer with +4 years of experience and an affinity for front-end, I optimize the meeting between strategy, usability, and aesthetics.

I founded Boredkid Utilities, a bicycle helmet customization brand, and supported large groups on high-stakes projects: B2B onboarding platform in banking, optimization of the Design System and in-app journeys for FDJ, the European leader, in a context of hybrid offering restructuring.

I also had the opportunity to teach UX/UI design to +50 international students at the Ironhack bootcamp.

Today, I am looking for strategic freelance missions, driven by teamwork, open to experimentation, to high-level thinking, and guided by a taste for detail and beauty.
