FROM IDEA
TO LAUNCH.

Design lead and senior product designer. UX, brand, and the processes to ship them.

I design digital products from first brief to launch: the UX, the brand and the processes that let a team deliver them on time. 20+ years in design, 10 of them leading UI/UX at Octagram Creative. Trained in fine arts and computer programming, and a former startup co-founder.

Hire me.

A design lead or senior product role: research to design QA, product decisions, MVP product management, DesignOps and AI workflows. CV and leadership case studies on request.

Work with me.

UX/UI, brand identity and web design by one person, on a fixed scope. You get a shipped product, not three vendors to coordinate.

MVP PRODUCT MANAGER · BRAND IDENTITY · LAUNCHED 2019

PolicyAdvisor

Product manager for the MVP of an insurance platform. Worked with the CEO on the user flows and information architecture, created the brand identity, and set the design and architecture the 2019 launch was built on.

PROJECT LEAD · UX DESIGNER · LAUNCHED NOV 2025

UX · PERSONAS, JOBS TO BE DONE, FLOWS, PROTOTYPE · 2020

Schneider Electric
Shop-in-Shop

Electrician persona, jobs to be done, user flows, wireframes and a low-fi prototype for a B2B e-commerce experience.

THREE PILLARS.
ONE DESIGNER.

Take it from idea to MVP.

I turn an early idea into a shipped MVP: user flows, information architecture, wireframes, prototype, the product management to decide what ships first, and design QA through the build.


  • → PolicyAdvisor: MVP product manager, launched 2019
  • → Utter: led the design to MVP delivery
  • → Traceability.ro: project lead and UX designer, launched Nov 2025
  • → Schneider Electric: two personas, jobs to be done, flows, wireframes tested with the client team

Brand and product as one system.

The brand and the interface are designed together: logo, visual system and guidelines, then a Figma design carried through to a live site.


  • → PolicyAdvisor brand identity
  • → Traceability.ro logo system and site
  • → KAY Sake identity, packaging and site
  • → TechPulse brand and platform

Ship faster.

DesignOps and AI-assisted workflows cut delivery time, so a team ships on time without lowering the bar.


  • → Delivery time cut by 20% (internal measure)
  • → Google AI Professional Certificate
  • → Multi-market campaign production for global brands
  • → Schneider Electric: 12-module product page template and SiS 2.0 guidelines, reused by distributors

From Figma design to a live site: build coordination, content layout, responsive design and launch. The build stack is chosen per project.


FIXED SCOPE · FOR FOUNDERS

Fractional product design

A product designer embedded in your team on a monthly or hourly basis: priorities, DesignOps and the processes to ship. Also open to full-time.
