Countries Called Home

Living in Rio, London, Berlin, and regular time with family in Oslo. Different cultures, city dynamics, and landscapes taught me to pay closer attention, a skill that makes me a better designer.

Verticals Designed Across

From automotive and gaming to enterprise SaaS and sustainability. I design for the problem, not the sector, and that transfers faster than people expect.

30+

Designers Interviewed

Across hiring panels throughout my career, with deliberate attention to structured interviews and standardised scoring, the frameworks that actually reduce unconscious bias in hiring decisions.

50+

Research Sessions

Design Thinking workshop facilitation, qualitative user interviews, Jobs-to-be-Done (JTBD) framing, moderated usability testing, and System Usability Scale (SUS) scoring.

(Frequently Asked Questions)

What does complex, large-enterprise B2B SaaS experience actually give me, and would I still move fast enough for a smaller team?

How do I work when the brief isn't clear yet, and what part of the job do I enjoy most?

How do I actually strengthen a team, and will I get hands-on or mostly direct from a distance?

What did I do with the time between roles, and where do I actually stand on AI in my day-to-day work?

How has living abroad shaped me, and am I looking for something long-term, or a bridge while I sort out next steps?
