Today is my last day at Intercom My life has completely changed since I've joined the company almost 3 years ago. It's surely never been an easy ride, but I can't express how much have I learnt, how much am I a different person now. Soon to follow with updates on what's next.

It makes you look different on your life when it's packed in 23 boxes

Happy to share that today is my first day at Beamery . I've joined the company as a Product Design Lead to drive the design system and Design Ops. Feel very energized and excited about this new challenge and can't wait to start building things with the team!
