Product Design for fiwind
Featured case of study
In short, I witnessed an extraordinary growth trajectory for the company, skyrocketing from 5K users to over 300K+ (last checked 14/06/24).
Crucially, I led key decisions, including a new design for their branding’s art direction, which played a pivotal role in enhancing the platform’s visual identity and user engagement. Furthermore, I actively collaborated with the marketing, engineering teams, and stakeholders in order to align my design approaches and create the best possible outcome.

- Developed both low-fidelity and high-fidelity prototypes using Figma, iteratively refining and validating design concepts.
Test
- Conducted internal testing sessions with cross-functional team members to gather initial feedback and identify areas for improvement.
- Leveraged surveys to collect qualitative insights from target users, facilitating iterative refinement based on user feedback.
To streamline project management and ensure effective collaboration, I meticulously documented the entire roadmap using Notion and utilized Asana dashboard to organize and prioritize tasks, ensuring seamless execution of the design process.
