Product Design Consultant

Connect the product decision to the experience people use.

For founders and product managers who need a clear path from an ambiguous problem to a testable product direction. I combine research, interaction design and design systems with practical engineering handoff.

Where I can help

Start with the problem.

An idea without a clear first release
Separate the core user job from features that can wait.
A redesign without a diagnosis
Understand the current friction before replacing screens.
A gap between design and delivery
Agree constraints and acceptance criteria before handing off the interface.

How we work through it

  1. Align on audience, business outcome and the decisions the project must resolve.
  2. Explore and test the riskiest flows before refining the complete interface.
  3. Deliver the agreed scope with reusable components and implementation notes.

Before we start

Can we start before requirements are complete?

Yes. A discovery engagement can turn open questions into a clearer scope. The proposal should distinguish discovery decisions from delivery commitments.

What should I share in the first message?

Send a short description of your product, your audience, the main problem and any deadline.
