Work With Ileana
A mix of strategist, designer, and builder: someone who asks the right questions and helps teams move from “we’re not sure yet” to “this feels right.”
Ileana brings 15+ years of design experience into your team, and knows what it takes to launch, pivot, or scale a product. With a background in art, years of working closely with engineers, and deep experience running Design Sprints, she adds creative insight, technical fluency, and structure. She is the author of UX+AI on Substack (4.4k subscribers). Hands-on and strategic. A real option for teams with no design function yet.

She brings together strategic thinking and hands-on UX expertise, and her support added both structure and creative energy to the project.
