Experience

  • Lead Designer, PinsoftFeb 2021 – now

    I lead the design team and run projects from research to delivery. I do field research on site with the people who use the software, then turn it into flows and screens. I present design decisions in client meetings and workshops, and collect requirements there. I run user interviews and usability tests, and do the business analysis when a project needs it. I built the company design system and keep it running: tokens, components and documentation, used across every product line. I write production front-end code in React, Next.js and Tailwind CSS when a project needs it.
