About me
Guess my nationality by analysing the high-fidelity cliché drawings on my profile picture and win a croissant.
I’m a UX Researcher and Product Designer with over ten years of experience.
I was lucky enough to study at two of Paris’s most renowned institutions, Gobelins and CELSA La Sorbonne, which provided me with a strong foundation in both creative and strategic thinking.
Since 2015, I’ve been freelancing for a diverse mix of clients: from European organisations to leading retailers and creative agencies.
In 2020, I embraced the flexibility of remote and hybrid work, which allowed me to become a “digital nomad.”
I now collaborate with clients across Europe and the US, working both remotely from my home office and onsite as needed.
I’m dynamic, super positive, and I know my craft inside and out.
I’m always approachable and love collaborating with teams, but I also bring strong expertise and a trustworthy approach to every project.
If you’re looking for someone with a positive attitude who’s reliable and knows what they’re doing, I’d love to connect.
Availability: Open for freelance projects from January 2025.

What do I do
UX Research
Responsibility: Plan and execute user research to gain insights that inform design decisions. This involves defining research goals, choosing appropriate methodologies (e.g., interviews, surveys, usability testing), conducting studies, and synthesizing findings.
Goal: Understand user needs, pain points, and behaviors to create a foundation for user-centered design decisions.
Deliverables: Research reports, user personas, journey maps, and usability analysis.
Product design
Responsibility: Develop a strategic approach for the product's design by aligning it with both user needs and business goals. This includes sketching, wireframing, and prototyping to explore and present design concepts.
Goal: Ensure the design solution is not only user-friendly but also aligned with the broader objectives of the client.
Deliverables: Wireframes, low- and high-fidelity prototypes, and final designs.
Stakeholders management
Responsibility: Maintain clear and effective communication with clients, stakeholders, and other team members. This includes presenting research findings, justifying design choices, and managing expectations throughout the design process.
Goal: Build trust and ensure alignment with clients and stakeholders, making sure that all parties understand and are aligned with the design vision and approach.
Deliverables: Presentation decks, regular updates, documentation of decisions, and clear communication of design rationale.
Usability Test & Iteration
Responsibility: Test design prototypes with real users and iterate based on feedback. This often involves setting up usability tests, analyzing the results, and making necessary design adjustments to improve usability and user satisfaction.
Goal: Refine the product by identifying and addressing issues before the final build, thereby minimizing post-launch issues.
Deliverables: Usability test plans, findings, design refinements, and documentation of iterative changes.
