01 / Selected work

Real complexity.
Considered solutions.

Three product challenges, explored through the decisions that shaped the experience.

02 / Design, in practice

Good decisions.
Better experiences.

How I connect the user’s task, the business need, and the details of the interface.

01

Product & business thinking

Identify the operational problem and make the design decision serve it. In HRMS, that means separating necessary bank checks from repeated ones.

02

Information architecture

Give complex systems a structure people can learn. DineroSync connects a central financial overview with dedicated operational modules.

03

Interaction & state design

Consider what happens when the journey stops being straightforward: incomplete uploads, missing details, and progress that needs to be visible.

Review the states
04

Visual craft & systems

Use hierarchy, typography, and recurring patterns to make interfaces feel coherent—across dashboards, records, and individual actions.

05

Research & validation planning

Turn assumptions into questions that can be tested. Define the task, the behavior to observe, and what would make the design worth revising.

See the validation plan
06

Communication & trade-offs

Explain why a design works, what it prioritizes, and what still needs checking. Make the reasoning useful to product and engineering partners.

My background in Mass Communication shapes how I approach design: understand the audience, organize the information, and make the next step clear.

I enjoy the part where a vague brief becomes a specific problem—and a complicated process begins to feel straightforward.

04 / Beyond the product

Investor pitch decks

A strong idea deserves
a compelling story.

I also design pitch decks for investment conversations—turning business ideas into clear narratives, well-structured slides, and a consistent visual story.

The investor story

Structure before slides.

01The problemWhy this needs to exist.

Start with a specific audience and a costly, recurring problem. Make the current workaround and the reason for change easy to understand.

A clear problem gives the product a purpose.

02The opportunityWhy this is worth building.

Connect the audience’s need to a credible market opportunity. Organize the evidence, alternatives, and product advantage into a story an investor can follow.

Support the ambition with evidence.

03The businessHow the product becomes a company.

Explain who pays, how the product creates value, and what progress can be demonstrated. Close with a specific ask and the milestones it would enable.

Make the path from idea to investment clear.
