About me
I've been a product designer for over 12 years, and I strongly believe this is the best time for product design, ever.
What I believe
Explain it to a 5-year-old
If I can't explain a problem in plain words, I don't understand it well enough yet. That is my test before I design anything.
Clean UI with a spark
Calm, quiet screens do most of the work. One small moment of delight, a transition or a detail, is what people remember.
Sometimes no UI is best
A smart default, an automation or one well-placed setting can remove a whole screen. Less to learn beats a nicer screen.
Be bold enough not to build it
Every feature costs maintenance, support and attention. Saying no, with evidence behind it, can be the most valuable design decision on a roadmap.
AI brings even chances for everyone
AI and vibe coding let anyone test an idea in hours, not sprints. Good ideas win on evidence. The best time ever to be a product designer.
Big projects
Selected cases from Miro, Allegro and Egnyte. Reach out to get access and learn more about them.
Miro
2022 to now- Content ExplorerAdmins could manage users and teams, but not content: support handled about 2,000 bulk-change requests a quarter. I designed Content Explorer; 480 admins used it in the first public-beta week.Password protected
- Miro AnalyticsInsights was the least opened page in Miro: five widgets, untouched for four years. We rebuilt analytics for Enterprise admins, and it now draws over 1,000 visits a week.Password protected
- Miro Enterprise GuardOver half of Miro's ARR came from its top 500 customers. I led the design of Enterprise Guard, the first add-on, which made more money than expected two years running.Password protected

Free time
Climbing, tango and travel with my family.
I climb, mostly boulders.
Problem solving with your whole body: read the route, try, fall, adjust and try again.
I dance Argentine tango.
It is improvised, with constant small signals between two people. It made me a better listener.
I DJ at milongas.
I play tango music for the dancers and change the plan when the floor goes quiet.
I travel with my family.
With my wife and our little one, the best travel crew I know.

Hey there,
You made it to the bottom of my home page. Thanks for your interest in my little portfolio!
As you might have noticed, I like hard problems and bold ways of solving them. I'm always up for a new adventure.
If you are building something cool and need somebody to help shape the vision in a user-centered way, design a lovely interface and make sure you can actually ship it fast, it's a match!
