I’m a senior product design leader with 15+ years of experience transforming complex ideas into digital products, scalable design systems, and user experiences that deliver measurable results.
I’ve built and led distributed UX teams across North America, Latin America, and Europe, shipped products serving millions of users, and established design systems that drastically reduced development time. My approach blends craft, strategy, and emerging AI-powered UX methods to simplify complexity, scale teams, and drive outcomes that matter.
I also run A Stronger Idea Design, my studio practice, where I consult on product design, design operations, and leadership — helping startups and growth-stage companies bring clarity, structure, and speed to their product initiatives.
