I’ve helped global companies based in numerous countries (Argentina, Brazil, China, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Poland, The Netherlands, United Arabic Emirates, United States) create great user experience with my UX design and Management background of a proven more than 20-years track record in creating global products through the development of large web, desktop and mobile applications. During seven years in China, I championed the User Experience Design discipline as User Experience Manager at Autodesk as well as Local Leader of the IxDA Shanghai chapter.

As an Information Design specialist, I’ve held several lecturing positions including Guest Lecturer of Interaction Design at Köln International School of Design (Germany), Visiting Lecturer of Design Practice at École de Design Nantes Atlantique (France), and Assistant Program Director of the Visual Communication Department of Raffles Design Institute at DongHua University (China).
