Design system aligned, ready for engineering handoff.

🤝Dev Support Annotate specs and adapt the final design when technical constraints demand it.
Bridge design intent and code reality.

🌍Localization & Design QA Adapt layouts for RTL, string lengths and cultural fit.
Review staging implementations before every release.

Core skills

🔬

Research-led design

User interviews, usability tests, lo-fi co-design sessions. I treat research as the cheapest insurance against shipping the wrong thing.

InterviewsUsability testsDiary studies

🧩

End-to-end UX

From the first whiteboard to the last QA round. Information architecture, flows, edge cases — every state a user might land in, not just the happy path.

IAUser flowsEdge cases

✨

Interaction & UI

Pixel-considered interfaces with care for type, rhythm, and motion. Visual decisions that feel invisible — because they're exactly right.

UI craftMotionPrototyping

🧱

Design systems

Variables, tokens, component states, theming, documentation. I love the part where one design choice cascades to thirty screens.

TokensComponentsTheming

📝

UX writing & localization

Microcopy is UX. Error messages, empty states, push notifications — words that guide without friction. Glossary management across IT, EN, FR and DE.

Accessibility

WCAG 2.1 AA as a baseline, not a checklist. Contrast, focus order, screen reader logic, touch target size, motion sensitivity.

AI Workflow · 2026

How AI became my design multiplier 🤖

🔬

From 40 tabs to clear insights

I cluster interview transcripts with Claude and ChatGPT, draft affinity maps in minutes, and sanity-check insights against raw quotes. Saves hours, raises the floor of every research debrief.

PM work, without the overhead

I use AI to draft user stories, structure briefs, turn meeting notes into project trackers, and keep Notion spaces clean. Removes the admin layer so design gets more time.

Code-aware prototypes

For tricky interactions I build working HTML/JS prototypes with Cursor or Claude Code — quicker than wiring Figma, and engineers can fork them. Closes the gap between design and shipped code.

CursorClaude CodeHTML / JS

Custom skills & agents

I build internal Claude skills for repetitive workflows: meeting-notes to project tracker, copy buddy, request-factory for user stories, Lokalise translation. Less busywork, more design.

What drives me

🧠

Neuroscience How attention, memory, and bias quietly shape every screen. Where cognitive psychology meets design.

🤝

People I like to volunteer and give back. People are endlessly interesting — understanding them is something I carry into work and life equally.

⚙️

Technology Code, Arduino, Unity, and the constant tinkering to understand what's possible. I learn faster when I make things.

♟️

Away from the screen Running, chess, cooking, trekking, strategy games. Small daily disciplines that train my eye and patience.
