bridging the gap between analytical problem-solving & creative design.

about me

I'm a Product Designer with an entrepreneurial mindset, and currently leading the UX/UI design at a B2B SaaS startup focused on sustainability.

With my experience in early-stage product development, I lead design from scratch, focus on pragmatic outcomes and turn complex ideas into intuitive designs.

I'm not just a designer - I'm a strategic thinker who understands the importance of user feedback and iterative design in creating impactful products.

My background in project management and a Masters degree from a top European business school brings a unique blend of business sense and design thinking.

I love to explore the world around me through traveling, reading and listening to podcasts. When I'm not diving into new explorations, you can often find me in nature, camping, learning to surf, practicing yoga or trying out new baking recipes.

“I am constantly striving to set new challenges for myself and expand my horizons.”

Watch me working on one of my previous projects

In 2020, I founded together with Nicolas Alber and Raquel Santos a pre-incubation program for young startup founders, called mangoUP. We were based in Lisbon, an international and remote-first team. We pitched our project to 20+ business angels and European VCs.

We enabled 150+ young founders from ideation too the first No-code prototype with leveraging e.g. Substack, Notion, CMS, Discord.

I was responsible for the strategy, investor relations and my favorite part - developing our product. Starting with building several landing pages, testing the concept and iterating, to building a full social media platform on Wordpress. That’s where my curiosity for digital product development and visual design started to become serious.
