DRAG

                I’m an independent Senior Product and Brand Designer with a dedicated focus on working in complex digital environments.

I typically work in settings with multiple stakeholders, legacy constraints and long-term roadmaps, where clear structure, shared understanding and robust design processes are essential. My work spans hands-on UX and UI design, information architecture, user journeys and task flows, as well as the definition and evolution of design systems, UX patterns and guideline platforms in agile project contexts.

User-Centered Design principles form the foundation of my work, including requirements analysis, iterative prototyping and usability evaluation. I’m experienced in working along established standards such as ISO 9241-210 and ISO 9241-11, translating normative requirements into practical, usable solutions.

Beyond individual interfaces, I help teams clarify ways of working at system, component and team level. The goal is to reduce friction, align decisions and enable sustainable collaboration between design and development.
