TL;DR: Product Designer at EDGE Empower®, currently focused on building our internal design system for our B2B platforms, while exploring and deploying projects with generative AI and coding agents into the world.

Since the start of my career, I’ve collaborated with international NGOs, design studios, and major tech companies across global markets.

Today, I lead the design evolution at EDGE Empower®. Right now, my primary focus is auditing our existing products and creating our first design system, ensuring our platforms can scale efficiently.

Lately, I’ve been exploring generative AI and coding agents to build and deploy real functional applications. This hands-on approach allows me to solve practical problems for users while understanding new technologies and software architecture.

Outside of work, I like to spend my time with my loved ones and stay inspired by my favorite interests, such as music, cinema, sports, and art.

I am dedicated to expanding my knowledge and expertise in my field. Throughout my career, I've acquired various skills, which I continue to improve.

Full-Stack Product Strategy

Shaping a product’s direction by aligning vision, market needs, and business goals for long-term success.
