About

I'm a seasoned creative professional with over 12 years of experience crafting digital content for the World Wide Web. I thrive on collaborating with studios, startups, brands, and individuals, and I'm equally adept at contributing to interdisciplinary teams or working independently. Amidst rapidly evolving conditions, I appreciate work that endures. I firmly believe in the principle of simplicity, both in design and code. At present, my area of expertise lies in designing beautiful and detailed interfaces for the web.

Projects

2023

Flowers is simplifying the complex world of digital business organization with fast, simple, flexible, and automated workflows. The No-Code Process-Editor, Cloud Platform, and Solutions make workflows efficient and profitable.

I was in charge of creating a fully-fledged design system that could handle all the complex requirements this kind of software is bringing to the table. I've built the system upon my own starter kit Bica, which gave me deep insights on a lot of edge cases.

Further, I've helped to wrap complex concepts into understandable UX flows and translated these with the help of my design system into a modern interface.
