Interests

ME

Product / UX Designer or 'Planner with aesthetic sense'.
Focused on clarity and impact, I connect user insight, product thinking, and visual logic to turn complexity into coherence.

Experience spans banking, fintech, venture capital, and creative consulting, with collaborations at Google, Facebook Reality Labs, ZOZO NEXT, BAC LATAM, and TD Bank US.

Currently design at Publicis Global Delivery, supporting TD Bank initiatives focused on simplifying complex systems and making digital banking more human. My role often lives in the in-between—bridging research and interface, intent and execution, to turn ideas into usable products.

Work

Digital Product Designer • UX/UI Designer

Improving access to credit through a secured credit card initiative for TD Bank. I worked end to end — from wireframes to high-fidelity design and documentation — rethinking navigation and redesigning the experience across mobile and desktop to make it clearer and more accessible for users without an established credit score.
