About me
I'm a Senior Product Designer based in Brno, Czech Republic. For 15+ years I've been designing enterprise software – the kind of tools people rely on to do real work, every day.
What I do
Design, for me, isn't just producing screens. I run workshops, talk to users, sit with engineers while they build, and keep showing up after launch – reading the data, watching how people actually use it, and iterating from there.
Currently at Kontent.ai, where I:
- Design the workflows content teams use to publish across multiple channels
- Look after the design system – components, usage guidelines, and the designers who rely on them
- Make sure accessibility is a first–class concern, not a checklist at the end

Approach
I start with a lot of questions. If the brief is solving the wrong problem, I'll say so. I want to understand who we're building for before I decide what it should look like – and I stay close to engineering and product the whole way through.
Outside work
Biohacking, healthspan optimisation, sauna, snowboarding, backpacking, photography, everything Italian, and too many notes in a Zettelkasten.
