About

I’m a product designer, UX researcher, and project manager with a background in healthcare. I spent six years as a practicing dentist, where working closely with patients taught me the power of empathy, clear communication, and collaboration. These skills now guide my work in design and research. I discovered UX as a way to combine creativity, problem-solving, and human-centered thinking. From my first project, I was hooked. Turning insights into solutions that improve people's experiences feels both meaningful and exciting. Today, I work at the intersection of research, design, and strategy. I translate user insights into actionable solutions while managing projects end-to-end. I thrive when solving complex problems, collaborating with cross-functional teams, and creating experiences that truly meet user needs.
