Resume

The aim is to envision product concepts, as well as through an analytical approach to how present and future scenarios might affect service and products in question.

 

Resume

Product designer with 15+ years experience, from high-velocity freelance to leading design at scale inside Meta Reality Labs — with work spanning NASA, Google, Netflix, Huawei, and Swedish Radio. I own projects end-to-end and thrive where speed and taste both matter. My background spans interaction and industrial design, which means I think in systems but design for humans. Recognised for pushing boundaries with IXDA Best in Show and iF Design Award. I mentor designers without losing my own hands-on craft. If you're building something that needs both speed and taste, that's where I do my best work. Currently open to senior IC roles and selected consulting engagements.
