UX/UI designer @ Thrindle
Junior UX/UI Designer
As a Junior Designer at Thrindle, I led the design of key screens for their e-commerce platform, later expanding my work to contribute to a Fintech project aimed at improving user engagement and onboarding. Leveraging feedback from a tracking system monitored by the sales team, I optimised user flows, resulting in a 15% reduction in cart abandonment and a 10% increase in new user sign-ups post-launch. My data-driven approach to design, coupled with close collaboration with developers, ensured efficient handoffs and minimised revisions. I also played a key role in refining the design process during retrospectives, enhancing the team’s agile workflow.

The Path that led me here
I started in visual communication, where color, typography, and storytelling were my daily language. This background taught me to craft messages that resonate emotionally and stand out visually.

I realized that behind every screen lies a human story, and it was this discovery that pulled me into UX. The pivot from purely visual design to problem-solving for real users felt like a natural next step.

Today, I blend my visual roots with human-centered design methods—focusing on inclusive, data-driven solutions that balance empathy with business strategy. It’s a continuous journey, and I’m excited to see where it leads.

Rooted in user empathy, Design Thinking is my go-to for tackling ambiguous challenges. By immersing myself in users’ lives, I define key pain points before brainstorming and prototyping. Through constant iteration, I uncover practical, people-centric solutions.
Transforming concepts into tangible, user-centric experiences, our Product Design services go beyond aesthetics. We delve into the core of user needs, employing an iterative prototyping approach to refine and perfect solutions.
