I am a UX Researcher with 16 years of experience in data analytics, qualitative and quantitative research, and user-centric methodologies.
I have collaborated with global research agencies and delivered in-house research for B2B and B2C enterprises. My expertise spans various research domains: UX, marketing, communications, reputation management, sustainable development, and ESG.
After years of studying how people perceive a company, evaluating its reputation, assessing the strength and health of its brand, and understanding the internal social climate, I redirected my skills toward user experience.
My strength lies in translating research insights into actionable strategies and shaping long-term product visions. Being the Head of Research and Analytics, I've had strong analytical, problem-solving, time-managing, and mentoring skills.
I excel in collaborating with cross-functional teams while also possessing the ability to work independently.
Eager to contribute my skills and dedicated to making a tangible difference in the user experience.

Project history

business requirements. My role feeds into a new product release that improves global user experience and
solves problems in user journeys to deliver the best product engagement. Responsibilities:

well-informed by implementing user insights into the product development process. As the only UXR, I had to lead,
implement and conduct UX Research projects and activities across the company with a great degree of autonomy.

patterns, issues, challenges, and insights for inclusion in the project development iterations across the product
life-cycle. Product strategy definition and identification of new opportunities based on research insights.
* Presented chosen research methods, tools, studies, and results findings to a multiple set of stakeholders:
Executives, UX Designers, Product Managers and other team members.
