About

What does it take to grow a product from unranked to global #2 with $100M+ ARR? Or slash dev costs 3x enabling new product launches in 3 weeks? Here’s how I drive business growth 👇 Wrong design decisions lead to inconsistent experiences, poor retention, and rigid products. This means costly rework, delayed launches, and ultimately, eroded trust. In 20+ years as product designer I’ve seen products stuck in “pre-release” or lose their entire user base despite costly marketing efforts, but I’ve also: 🏆 Enabled $50M+ portfolio growth serving 1M+ users at Russia's largest payday loan company 🏆 Elevated a social mobile streaming platform from Top 20 to Global #2 in its category through user-centric design language 🏆 Slashed dev costs 3x by uniting crypto wallet product lines around a multi-branded design system I do it by taking full ownership of product design—from 0 to 1 launches to scaling existing products by driving business metrics. I work closely with CPO, CTO, and PMs to align on incremental strategies and actionable steps to transform ambitious visions into reality. I validate with real users, align teams around design decisions, and build design systems that let teams ship independently and scale without rework. I also build and mentor design teams as the product scales. With 7+ years in FinTech and SaaS I understand complex workflows, compliance challenges, and technical nuances of blockchain technologies. I build products that are enterprise-ready, investor-ready, and built to last. If you've made it this far, it's likely we share some common ground!
