A client came to me with an idea. No product, no renders, no validation, just a concept.
Three months later: a laser-based padel training system, fully modeled, visualized and ready to present to investors.
A product that projects dynamic training patterns onto the court and detects ball impacts in real time. The challenge wasn't just making it look good, it was making a technically complex system feel real, credible and investable.
Research → sketching → CAD → renders → explainer video. Full process, one deliverable: confidence for investor conversations.

I spent over a year as the product designer for Hypernative. They just raised $40M in Series B funding not long ago.
Hypernative is a real time security platform for Web3, protecting billions in assets across 60+ blockchains. The product is genuinely best in class. But when I started, the UX wasn't matching the tech.
The UI was super complex, data heavy, and required a steep learning curve. For a security platform where seconds matter, that's a big problem. If your users can't parse a critical alert instantly, the best detection engine in the world doesn't help.
So We rebuilt the experience around three pillars: clarity, actionability, and scalability.
Clarity meant redesigning the threat severity system so users could gauge urgency at a glance. Actionability meant replacing static alerts with interactive ones that included recommendations, historical context, and mitigation steps right in the UI. Scalability meant building a modular dashboard so different teams could customize the interface for their workflow.
The results were 40% improvement in threat detection response time. 30% increase in user retention. 25% reduction in false positive friction.
In complex B2B products, design is the difference between a tool people tolerate and a platform they rely on. Especially in security so if the UX creates cognitive load at the moment someone needs to act fast, you've already lost.
Perfect design
Hey everyone, this is my submission for the @Rive HMI Challenge 🚀
Excited to share my Vehicle HMI (Human-Machine Interface) design, focused on a Boat Dashboard UI built using @Rive.
This project explores a modern marine interface that combines real-time data, navigation insights, and smooth interactive animations to create a seamless user experience 🌊
The experience is designed as a clear flow:
connection → system sync → navigation → monitoring → alerts → control
The interface highlights key elements like speed, fuel, GPS tracking, weather conditions, and risk indicators — all structured to keep the information clear, minimal, and easy to understand.
A major focus of this project is how motion communicates system behaviour. Each animation reflects a state change, helping users instantly understand what’s happening in the system.
Built using State Machine, Data Binding, and Layout in Rive.
Would love to hear your thoughts 👇
That marine dashboard layout is super clean — using motion to signal state changes instead of alerts is the right call for a cockpit UI
Wow Amazing work 🔥
