Hi there — I'm Gab — a design leader with over 25 years of experience in product, marketing and brand. In the past decade I've dedicated my career to expanding design culture in companies, building and mentoring teams of designers while creating world class products and experiences.
I'm currently leading design, user experience and innovation at Leap Tools, working with fast growing product and marketing teams, creating cutting edge artificial intelligence (AI) solutions like roomvo, the world's best home decor visualizer used by millions worldwide.
Here are a few of the world-class projects that I've led or designed in recent years, both as a director of design and as a consultant.

about

Design leader with a solid track record specializing on digital experiences for brands and product companies. I've been managing teams of UI, UX, Product designers and UX writers in B2B and B2C environments with a strong belief that a fine balance between data, creativity and empathy should be the core of every good user-centric experience. In love with psychology in design and innovation I strive to help reinvent how we interact with the world surrounding us.
When not working, chances are I'm getting lost somewhere in the woods, on a family roadtrip or relaxing with my lovely wife and our two. daughters monsters princesses ♥.
