About me
Bio

Design engineer driven by craft and product thinking.

I bring solid experience designing B2B SaaS products for early-stage startups, where speed, clarity, and impact matter most.

I love experiencing well-designed products and user experiences, but I get just as much joy from building thoughtful ones for others.

Product designer and creative problem solver with a deep appreciation for craft and a keen interest in product management. I have solid experience in B2B product design for early-stage startups. I'm passionate about creating a competitive edge through innovative and desirable products. I’m also enthusiastic about technology and how it can improve people's lives.

Currently, I'm building the future of manufacturing at Juno.
