Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

Design with precision. Lead with impact. Deliver what ships.

Do you have a complex, regulated, or technical product — and your users are struggling to adopt it? That's exactly the kind of problem I solve.

With 18 years of experience in demanding environments, I align field research, user-centered design, and business constraints to deliver interfaces that teams actually use — not just deliverables that stay in Figma.
