UI/UX Designer | 8 years | Regulated platforms, dashboards & design systems

Summary

I'm a UI/UX Designer with 8 years of professional experience. Skilled in compliance tools, operational dashboards, and regulated platforms – in practice, interfaces where one confusing screen can cost someone a missed deadline or a failed audit. I also work on sketching, wireframing, prototyping, requirements gathering, UX writing, user research, design systems, and guidelines.

I worked for 4 years on a multi-product enterprise platform for a regulated-industry client. There, I supported and evolved several connected modules across multiple product squads. Created and maintained a shared design system that had to keep up across the whole platform. I also designed a new interface from scratch that fit into the client's broader product ecosystem.

I have experience teaching a UI/UX course to a group of 30 students at Hillel IT School. This pushed me to improve how I communicate design rationale clearly to people from very different backgrounds.

Specialties: Prototyping, User Research, Wireframing, Interaction Design, User Journey Mapping, User Modelling, User Flows and Journeys, Web Design, Mobile App Design, Responsive Design.

I worked on a multi-product enterprise platform for a regulated-industry client. The platform supported operational and compliance workflows for specialized teams across multiple regions, and grew across several connected modules during my time on it.

I supported and evolved modules across multiple product squads and built and maintained a shared design system that stayed coherent as new modules launched. I designed a new portal from scratch to automate several user flows across the product.

I worked closely with the solutions architect and other senior stakeholders at the client's US office. Ran user research and usability sessions with subject-matter experts. Worked with BAs, PMs, and engineering in SAFe delivery cycles.
