About
Main bio
Before becoming a product designer, I spent my time on the engineering side of technology - working as a QA engineer and learning how products are built, tested, and improved. That experience shaped the way I approach design today: not just as a visual challenge, but as a process of solving real problems while balancing user needs, technical constraints, and business goals.
I’ve always been drawn to building things - from coding my own projects to creating products from idea to prototype. Working across design and technology allows me to think beyond the interface and understand the bigger picture: why a product exists, who it serves, and how every decision can make the experience better. What stays consistent is my curiosity, my willingness to ask the right questions, and my goal of creating simple solutions to complex problems.
Currently, I'm working as a QA Engineer at Check Point, where I get a behind-the-scenes look at how complex software products are built and improved. Alongside that, I've been transitioning into product design - creating projects that explore real-world problems, from helping people discover visa opportunities to simplifying everyday experiences.

Starting with why, not what
Before jumping into wireframes, I want to understand what problem we're actually solving. Sometimes the thing people ask for isn't the thing they need. My favorite projects start with good questions and end with solutions that feel obvious in hindsight.

no perfect world here!
Designing for real constraints
Perfect conditions don't exist. Budgets are tight, timelines are aggressive, legacy systems are messy, and sometimes you just can't talk to users directly. I'm comfortable making smart decisions with imperfect information and finding creative solutions within real limitations.
Collaboration over hero design
The best work happens when designers, engineers, and product folks are actually talking to each other—not throwing things over the wall. I genuinely enjoy the back-and-forth of figuring out what's possible, what's practical, and what's going to create the most value.
we, not me.
details build trust.
Making the invisible visible
Some of the most impactful design work isn't flashy—it's the progress indicator that keeps people oriented, the auto-save that prevents panic, the validation message that actually helps instead of just saying 'error.' These details build trust.

Checkpoint Softwares
Working on complex cybersecurity products at Check Point, bridging the gap between engineering quality and user experience. Through testing, analyzing workflows, and collaborating with developers, I’ve gained a deeper understanding of how products are built in the real world - knowledge that directly shapes the way I approach product design today.
