Luan the Designer
I’m a user-centered Product Designer with 5+ years of experience, specializing in creating intuitive digital solutions that drive both business growth and user satisfaction. My approach blends user needs with broader business goals, ensuring every design decision is effective and aligned with company objectives.
Currently, I’m working at Object Edge, collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver impactful designs for clients like Specialized Bikes, Motorola, and Pace Edwards. In addition to my design work, I mentor up-and-coming designers and stay engaged in the latest design trends, with a growing interest in sustainable UX/UI and accessibility.
Before Object Edge, I led the design efforts at Conquer Business School, focusing on creating engaging learning experiences. My projects have consistently improved key metrics, such as a 46.6% increase in feature usage and a 21.6% boost in site visits. I’m passionate about designing for impact, whether it’s enhancing user experience, reducing churn, or helping businesses unlock new growth opportunities.
I’ve also contributed to exciting projects in B2B eCommerce platforms, from crafting feedback forms to mobile experiences, and I’m always eager to tackle new challenges.
