About

What I bring to a design org

  1. 01

    Build and scale teams

    Grew LivePerson’s design from a single designer to a team of 12 across Israel and the US, from team lead to Head of Product Design.

  2. 02

    Lead through change

    Doubled Autodesk’s Israel design team and led it through the PlanGrid acquisition and the merge into one construction platform.

  3. 03

    Take products into AI

    At Totango, Salespeak and Perspective, I led the move from classic B2B SaaS to AI-first experiences.

  4. 04

    Ship it myself

    I design and build AI products end to end with Claude Code, from idea to production in weeks, not quarters.

Selected work

The Lab · 2026

Designed and built by me

Product, UX and production code, built solo with Claude Code. This is how I stay close to what AI can really do.

Myla Security · private demo

An AI security engineer for founders and small teams

Serious security is usually out of reach for small companies. Myla makes it a conversation, with an allow/block gate between agents, people and company tools. Real security under a simple UX.
