Stepping down from the leadership and management ladder, I joined Hanno as an individual contributor at a digital product house, pursuing my craft. I explored diverse industries before the team shifted its focus to digital health. One of the most meaningful projects for me was a wound management app for diabetic patients. It reshaped my perspective on what design can truly achieve: empowering behaviour change, improving lives, and even saving them. That experience strengthened my belief in the purpose and impact of being a designer.

And that led me to the mental health and self-development space, where I worked on Grief Works, a platform supporting people through loss. Listening to people’s stories about how it helped them through their darkest moments made me feel like I was making a real dent in the universe.

Alongside Grief Works, under the same company, we built and launched a product that transformed self-development advice from world-leading authors like Adam Grant, Dan Pink, and many more into practical tools for real-life application.
