About Me

Product Designer · UI/UX · Technical Products · Design Engineering

Hey, I'm Lydia. I'm a Product Designer with 8 years of experience across Web and mobile products. Over the past three years, I've focused on Scanat, a complex B2B 3D product for architecture and spatial workflows, designing professional tools across Web, iPad, and mobile.

I specialize in product architecture, information architecture, interaction design, and UI for complex technical products, working closely with product and engineering from problem framing through implementation. More recently, I've used AI-assisted coding to build working prototypes and extend design systems into design-to-code workflows.

Outside of work, I also enjoy building products independently. AI helps me turn ideas into working experiments faster; my personal products, visual explorations, and technical writing live on my website & blog.
