Leadership
I care about the quality of the work—and the conditions that make good work possible.
That means clear expectations, useful critique, space to grow, and a team that can disagree without losing trust. Design leadership is not about having all the answers. It is about helping people find better ones together.
Speaking & community
I share what I’m learning when it can help someone else.
I’ve spoken at conferences, communities and workshops across Europe and the Middle East on design systems, conversational UX, design sprints and product design.
