My design journey

My design journey

My design journey

My design journey

My path as a designer has never been a straight line, and I like it that way. I started broad, from print and web design to development and animation, before finding my passion in digital products and user experience. Working across agencies, in-house roles, and a startup gave me the chance to adapt, grow, and learn how to turn complex problems into simple, intuitive solutions.

What guides me today is simple: collaboration, curiosity, and attention to detail, with the belief that design should spark emotion and create a positive impact.

A philosophy I stand by

I believe great design is a team sport where collaboration and autonomy work hand in hand.

Last adventures

Product Designer - Lead Design

4 years

SaaS All-in-1, Fintech

2020 - 2024

As the solo Product Designer (Founding Designer role) for over 2.5 years in an early-stage startup, I shaped core SaaS features across both B2B and B2C to modernise how French works councils (CSE) operate. Later, I led and mentored a designer, built a design vision, and contributed to a 10x client growth, a major rebranding, and an enriched product experience.

Product Designer

Learning course

Design hub, Education, Design community

2020 - 2024

An eight-week (8 Saturdays) advanced course designed to master every step of the product design process, from user research and discovery to prototyping, UI, and delivery. Built and taught by designers from BlaBlaCar, Doctolib, Alan, and Facebook, this program was a true springboard for my work in startups, helping me apply best practices through hands-on projects and real-world collaboration with PMs, POs, and developers.

UX / UI Designer

2 years

Web & native mobile, Consulting, Digital transformation

2020 - 2024

Worked on 0→1 digital products across diverse industries, from business applications for PSG and L’Oréal to social mobile apps and a neo-bank project. This allowed me to explore user experience in depth, from workshops and wireframes to learn using design systems and interactive prototypes.

Graphic Designer

1 year

Web & Print, Internal & External Communication

2020 - 2024

My first major experience within a global leader in tourism and entertainment, designing mainly print and digital assets for internal communication, with occasional projects for external communication. My work impacted over 15,000 employees, from campaigns and events to corporate materials and animations, even contributing to the preparation of the Park’s 25th anniversary.

Her managerial skills were exactly what I needed to grow in the best possible conditions at Leeto. She found the right balance to make our duo work seamlessly, allowing each of us to bring out the best in one another.

Working with Christiane was a real privilege: a talented Product Designer, both pedagogical and attentive, who always bridges the gap between product and sales. She has a unique ability to turn ideas into simple and effective experiences.

Sarah Marbac, ex-Head of Sales @Leeto

Having Christiane on your team is a real advantage: she listens deeply and loves building collectively, especially by maintaining constructive dialogue with developers to ensure feasibility and implementation quality.

Mélanie Lemay, ex-Product Manager @Leeto

I had the opportunity to work many times with Christiane, a Designer with multiple strengths: attention to detail and aesthetics, strong technical skills, and a caring, energetic mindset that make her a real asset at every stage of the design process.

Beyond design is where I recharge and express myself in different ways. Creativity and curiosity play a big role in my life, whether it’s joining creative workshops, exploring interior decoration, or discovering new artistic movements and cultural influences.

Having Indian roots is also a big part of who I am. I love everything about my culture: the food, the films, the history, and especially the energy of South India. If you ever want to talk about it… I’m in!

And when it comes to relaxing, I enjoy diving into movies from fantasy and sci-fi sagas to the classics of my childhood… yes, I’m forever nostalgic about the 90s and 2000s!
