Turn scattered product ideas into UX flows, specs and delivery systems your team can build from

I partner with founders and teams to turn concepts and outline scopes into build-ready plans, PRDs and dev tickets – and run the delivery so work ships.

Common issues

Common issues

Common issues

Unclear user goals or business intent

No clear MVP or roadmap

Features defined too loosely → rework and delays

Feature bloat, scope creep and misalignment over time

Misalignment, scope creep , feature bloat

Developers expected to implement directly from Figma designs

It doesn't need to be this way!

I help teams cut build costs and improve delivery by refining UX flows, shaping a practical MVP, and giving developers clear, buildable direction — so work moves faster and with less waste.

What I do

What I do

What I do


  • Product & Feature Shaping
    Turn high-level ideas into a clear MVP, phased roadmap, and defined feature set that teams can build from.

  • UX Flows & Core Journeys
    Map the essential flows and touchpoints so design and engineering share the same mental model.

  • PRDs, Specs & Dev Tickets
    Write lightweight PRDs, technical notes, and developer-ready stories with ACs and edge cases.

  • Delivery Systems
    Set up simple product + delivery hubs (Notion, Linear, GitHub Issues) so teams have one clear place for specs, flows and tickets.

  • Multi-track Delivery
    Comfortable aligning hardware, firmware and software roadmaps, dependencies and timelines.

  • AI-assisted UX
    Use tools like UX Pilot, Lovable, ChatGPT and Claude to explore flows quickly and remove early ambiguity.

About me

About me

About me


I’m a freelance product lead with 15+ years shaping SaaS, logistics, automotive, construction, healthtech and IoT products. I work best in messy early stages — where ideas are scattered, UX is unclear, and teams need a buildable path forward.


My focus is simple: help teams understand the problem, define the right flows and features, and turn that into clean documentation and tickets developers can trust.


I bridge strategy and execution by keeping everything visible: UX flows, PRDs, roadmaps and delivery systems built in Notion and GitHub/Linear - keeping designers and engineers in distributed teams aligned without ceremony.

I care about clarity, calm communication and creating momentum one well-defined step at a time.
