Sometimes I build products from scratch.

Design gives you a way of seeing problems. But at some point, seeing wasn't enough, as I wanted to test whether the things I was designing actually worked, whether the markets I was designing for actually existed, and whether I could carry an idea from a blank Figma frame all the way to a live product.

Apex

— Career intelligence platform

Founder

Apex is a B2C SaaS platform built around a persistent Career DNA profile, a unified picture of who you are professionally that powers everything the platform does. The four core pillars are an AI Resume Optimizer, a LinkedIn Content Studio, a Psychographic Profiling Suite, and a Job Intelligence Profiler.

I conceived the product, designed the full system in Figma, and built it end-to-end. The psychometric layer implements IPIP-50 OCEAN and O*NET RIASEC with K.16 CGT Holland Code mapping, scored, interpreted, and fed into a persistent user profile that contextualizes every AI output the platform generates. The AI prompt architecture is a multi-feature layer built on the Claude API, where each tool (resume rewrite, LinkedIn post, cover letter, salary negotiation script) draws from the Career DNA profile to produce personalized output rather than generic generation. Billing runs on a feature-weighted credit system across four pricing tiers, designed to align credit cost with AI compute intensity per feature. Shipped to a live Vercel deployment at v0.1.

Topos

— Private event spaces, Athens

Co-founder

Finding the right private venue in Athens is a fragmented, frustrating process that still relies heavily on word of mouth. Topos brings discovery, availability, and booking into a single platform, covering everything from intimate creative spaces to larger private venues.

The design strategy centered on making space discovery feel editorial rather than transactional, closer to browsing a curated guide than filling out a form. I designed the information architecture to front-load atmosphere and capacity, with pricing and logistics surfacing deeper in the flow once intent is established. The host side required a separate design pass: a space management dashboard that handles availability calendars, inquiry management, and booking confirmations without overwhelming non-technical venue owners. Built with Supabase, and with Stripe managing booking deposits and full payments.

Co-founded and co-created with Vaia Ladia. Give her a look Vaia Ladia's portfolio.

Keryx

— Hiring-communications platform

Founder

Keryx drafts, checks and archives every message hiring teams send. From the first intake to the last rejection letter: job posts, outreach, offers, rejections and feedback, all in one voice and audit-ready.

I conceived the product, designed the brand and the full product experience, and built it end-to-end. The core of the platform is a structured intake that captures the role, team, comp band and non-negotiables in under a minute, feeding a drafting engine that produces job posts, outreach, offers, rejections and feedback letters in a consistent voice.

The Herald Check layer scores every draft for readability, bias, structure and pay-transparency signals, catching gendered phrasing, ableist idioms and vague seniority language before anything ships. Version history and a searchable audit trail keep every message archived and accountable.

myAPE

— Renewable energy marketplace, Greece

Founding Designer

Greece's first marketplace connecting buyers, sellers, and investors in wind and solar energy parks. I joined at the foundation stage and designed the entire product from scratch: 20+ screens across desktop, mobile, and tablet breakpoints, covering the homepage, listings, multi-step seller wizard, buyer and seller dashboards, search, authentication flows, and a full design system.

The core design challenge was credibility: renewable energy transactions involve significant capital and complex due diligence, so the UI had to communicate institutional reliability without feeling cold or inaccessible. I built a full design system in Figma establishing the visual language, component library, and spacing system before moving into screen design. The seller wizard was the most complex flow, a multi-step form capturing technical asset data, legal documentation, and pricing, designed to reduce abandonment through clear progress indication and contextual guidance at each step. Beyond product design, I also lead creative production for PPC and organic growth campaigns, including motion graphics, video editing, and static ad assets.

DUO

— Money management for two

Co-creator

DUO is a money manager for couples and partners, designed to make shared expenses, budgets and goals visible in one place while preserving each person's sense of independence.

The product turns a typically awkward, fragmented workflow of banking apps, screenshots and spreadsheets into a focused shared financial space. Household dashboards, synced activity, budgets and goals are organised around the decisions two people make together, with a warm interface that keeps the experience clear rather than clinical.

I created DUO with Vaia Ladia, shaping the product strategy, UX flows, design system and interaction language together. The venture is currently in UAT and pre-launch. Give her a look Vaia Ladia's portfolio.

Building something?

If you're going from zero, let's talk early.

Most of the leverage in a product happens before the first line of code. I help founders find it.
