I’m Dea Niar Misdayuni — a Senior Product Designer with 6+ years of experience crafting data-driven digital products across mobile, SaaS, and fintech.
Beyond designing and mentoring, I am actively building Kartisain a community-driven movement for women in tech, design, and art in Indonesia. The name is inspired by Kartini, Indonesia's national hero and pioneer of women's empowerment, reimagined through the lens of design. Through Kartisain, we create spaces for women to connect, collaborate, and grow together.
