About

II bring clarity to complex, constraint-heavy environments—whether designing customer-facing insurance journeys or internal operational platforms where business rules, technical limitations, and human workflows collide. With 5+ years across insurance (iptiQ/Swiss Re/Allianz Direct), fintech (Coinrule), and property platforms (Homie Co), I work end-to-end from discovery and problem framing through interaction design and delivery. I've designed multi-brand customer experiences spanning European markets, operational tools for claims handlers and customer service agents, and workflow-heavy platforms where precision and scalability matter as much as usability. My approach is research-driven and systems-oriented, informed by a Master's in social research methodology. I understand organizational dynamics and user behavior beyond surface-level usability—I map ecosystems, identify dependencies, and design for both the interface and the context around it. I excel in ambiguous problem spaces where alignment, structure, and strategic framing are as important as craft. I'm comfortable navigating complex stakeholder environments (Product, Engineering, Legal, Operations, Data) and translating messy requirements into coherent experiences that work across teams, markets, and edge cases. Currently seeking senior product design roles where I can work on meaningful problems—customer-facing or internal—collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, and contribute to product direction beyond just shipping screens.
