ABOUT ME
Digital Product Designer with more than fifteen years of experience
Digital Product Designer with more than fifteen years of experience
I design and build complete digital products, from strategy through deployment.
Not just mockups: working software, shipped fast. I led the product redesign of Spreaker, which won Microsoft BizSpark Most Promising Startup, grew to millions of users, and was acquired by iHeartMedia.
Recent work includes Shopify e-commerce stores, SaaS MVPs, and native macOS apps shipped end-to-end. 20 years combining product design with full-stack development (React, Next.js, React Native, Swift, Electron, Shopify).

I'm a experienced UX/UI designer, and I'm using Sketch on a daily basis, for a couple of years now, to help startups better design their digital products. You can see examples of my work on Whosay.com and Spreaker.com .
Oh, I also develop my own plugins. One of them in particular is having a very good response ( github.com/fhuel/Unsplash-It/ )
