Fractional Chief Experience Officer | Scaling Design Operations & Driving $MM Impact in Regulated Healthcare & Startups

About Me

Executive UX leader with 15+ years of experience driving product strategy, research, and design across healthcare, startup, and enterprise environments. I hold a Master’s in Management of Information Systems with a specialization in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), grounding my leadership in both technical rigor and human-centered design. I build and scale high-performing teams, shape zero-to-one product launches and embed UX into core business strategy — from clinical workflows and AI native systems to brand identity and multi brand launches. My leadership spans regulated healthcare, consumer platforms, and emerging technologies, where I’ve directed distributed teams across UX, visual design, research, content, and service design to deliver inclusive, emotionally resonant experiences for diverse user groups. I specialize in transforming ambiguity into clarity — guiding founders through MVP definition, directing large-scale launches, and optimizing design operations for scale. My experience includes direct CXO tenure (WeKan Enterprise Solutions) and Fractional CXO consulting, allowing me to champion design as a strategic differentiator while balancing vision with execution to deliver measurable impact.
