About

I am a senior product designer with 5 years of experience in professional and freelance roles. Recognized for reducing user complaints and enhancing quality, I have a verifiable history of contributing directly to product, project, and program success throughout my career. Professional focal points include UX/UI design, cross-functional collaboration, user story development, product lifecycle management, competitive analysis, mockups/prototyping, problem-solving, quality assurance, Agile/Scrum methodologies, user research, usability testing, and data-driven decision-making. Currently, I am the Senior Product Designer at Tingo Mobile. In this role, I have overseen projects such as the integration of a new design system and style guide, as well as the implementation of changes that resulted in higher user satisfaction and engagement. In addition, I liaise with senior leadership, stakeholders, and internal teams to ensure that the company’s development support structure is driving the business forward with minimal expenditures. Colleagues describe me as a progressive, driven, down-to-earth, technical expert who can be relied on to offer superior solutions that deliver the intended results. Currently exploring Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML).
