EXPERIENCE

subs

Design lead

2024 - Present

Working with Subs from its earliest stages, I’ve led the product design and user experience from the ground up. While leading the design team, we defined the brand identity, established the design system, and implemented all key design processes across the company. Through my own design consultancy, I continue to collaborate closely with the Subs team as their lead designer — managing all design work, growing the design team to three members, and ensuring consistency across product and marketing touchpoints. During this time, I’ve helped shape Subs into a strong and vibrant community platform, establishing its distinct position in the creator and social media landscape.

AUDITORIUM

PRODUCT LEAD

2024 – 2025

As part of the founding team at Auditorium, I helped shape the product and company from day one — leading it from concept to a platform with over half a million users. Reported directly to CEO, defined the product roadmap, managed all planning and prioritization. Also, played a key role in building the team — participating in the hiring and selection of nearly all employees, primarily in technical roles — and helped establish the company’s early operational processes. With full ownership of the product’s design, I created the brand identity, UI, and design system, ensuring a cohesive and scalable design foundation that supported the company’s growth to a 10-person team. Additionally, I contributed to several successful grant applications and strategic product initiatives.
