I started playing with design when I was 12 years old, living in a 10,000 people mountain town in rural Romania. One year later, I had my first client.
I dropped out of college at age 18 to pursue my design career. I don't have a formal education. Instead, I have 20 years experience, working with companies of all sizes, building digital products and brands.
I love working with small, agile, non-beaurocratic teams. I usually lead both product and marketing design, help with hiring and have a solid resilience for fast pacing environments.
I lead both product & marketing design through multiple initial pivots, helped recruit people and lead several successful product pitches for Chicago Cubs, Sephora, US Surfing.
I was the first designer hire, lead all initial product design through multiple pivots, lead R&D design and all marketing design from 4 to 200 employees and $1B valuation.
I was part of multiple 3 months idea-to-mvp sprints, usually as the sole designer in small 6-8 people agile teams.
