ABOUT ME đź‘‹

I'm Toronto based a seasoned product designer with over a decade of experience. The past 9 years I had been working on B2B SaaS enterprise products, more specifically on Developer tools.

My expertise lies in bridging the gap between business needs and technical solutions by collaborating closely with partner teams. I have a strong foundation in design and a multidisciplinary skill set that combines creative, technical, and business knowledge, I deliver solutions that drive both user satisfaction and business outcomes.

When I'm not designing, you'll probably find me running behind my two princesses, trying a new recipe, or walking.

Working with Bindi on Software AG's leading API Management platform was a pleasure. Her passion for creating seamless user experiences across products significantly enhanced the suite. Bindi consistently engaged with customers, translating their feedback into actionable insights for product management and R&D. She is unafraid to challenge the status quo, and her innovative suggestions have made a notable impact.

Bindi is also an excellent communicator. She balances stakeholder expectations, deadlines, and evolving requirements while delivering high-quality designs. I highly recommend her for any lead role in product design.
