Since 2022
Over the past three years, I designed multiple iterations that transformed Preply's app, covering onboarding, tutor search, scheduling, checkout flow improvements, and more. I also worked on the company's rebranding, redesigning Preply's design system, and creating a new iconography system. Additionally, I collaborated on the design system by documenting and refining app component guidelines to ensure clarity and alignment across the organization. Check out Preply on Mobbin.
2020 - 2022
At FreeNow (formerly MyTaxi), I designed the in-car experience of the driver's app, working to build a global platform tailored to drivers in 150+ cities across nine markets. I also led the Driver Design Principles project and contributed to FreeNow's design system, ensuring coherence and quality across driver, rider, app, and web experiences.
2018 - 2019
As part of the Customer Experience team, I worked with Mango's mobile app team to bridge the gap between e-commerce and retail shopping. My work focused on customer-centric experiences that increased app sales, strengthened brand presence, and improved in-store interactions like the app's self-checkout.
2015 - 2018
I designed the Discovery and Search experiences of eDream's app, helping travelers find destinations and enter the ticket purchase flow. Using a shared design system, I developed mobile-first solutions across eDreams' four brands: eDreams, Opodo, GoVoyages, and Travellink. These solutions support over a million monthly users across 40+ countries and 15 languages.
I've designed products that deliver high-impact user experiences for over a decade. I've led end-to-end design initiatives, played a key role in large-scale rebrands, and helped shape design systems.
My experience spans tech startups, fashion, retail, mobility, and travel, where I've crafted seamless, user-centric solutions that blend functionality with aesthetics.
I'm passionate about fostering a strong design culture, improving workflows, and driving collaboration between product and development teams to create scalable and impactful solutions.
Currently working as a Senior Product Designer at Preply. Previously, I worked at Free Now, Mango, eDreams ODIGEO, and before Netshoes, GetNinjas, and Grupo Globo.
