I'M
I'm a digital project and product manager with a background in design and a passion for turning complex ideas into clear, actionable solutions. Over the years, I've led websites, platforms and e-commerce projects from concept to launch, working closely with cross-functional teams across UX, development and marketing.
​
My design background allows me to approach digital products not only from a delivery perspective, but also from the user’s point of view. I enjoy improving customer journeys, shaping product features and translating ideas into structured roadmaps that create real value for both users and businesses.
​
Through my work in digital agencies, I’ve developed and launched websites, platforms and online experiences with a strong focus on usability, performance and conversion. I’m particularly interested in building digital products that connect user needs with measurable business impact.
​
Whether it's guiding a new digital product through development or optimizing workflows and user experiences along the conversion funnel, I bring structure, creativity and calm to every stage of the process.
​
Let’s build meaningful digital experiences together.
