Main skills to be of help
UX/UI Design
I develop user scenarios and flows to create clear and user-friendly products that meet their needs and expectations.
Product analysis
I prefer to contact stakeholders directly to prevent miscommunications and delays, and to gain a clear understanding of the business goals that we establish together.

Decomposing

& Planning

A solid plan is crucial to any product journey. I prefer an iterative development process, starting with MVP and progressing to subsequent releases, with each iteration supported by QA, user testing, and data collection.
Usability testing
As a true user advocate, I prioritize user-centric and user-friendly design. Despite our individual experiences, user testing remains the quickest path to valuable insights about our work.
Accessibility compliant design
Accessibility isn’t just about visually impaired individuals. We all may encounter situations where we have limited mobility, attention, or cognitive abilities. It’s crucial to keep this in mind when designing for accessibility.

Thinking of the team

Efficient teamwork is my priority. I strive to strike a balance between aesthetically pleasing solutions and practical development, while keeping documentation up-to-date for design colleagues and developers.

My passion lies in creating services that are not only beautiful but also convenient (and I am opposed to creating ugly and inconvenient things).

Change your opinions, keep to your principles
Victor Hugo

Being a user advocate

I’m deeply committed to creating products that make the world a more beautiful and comfortable place. It’s precisely why I became a product designer in the first place — to bring my vision of a better, more user-friendly world to life.

Striking a balance

I believe there’s always one between the interests of users and the business. Favoring one side over the other can negatively impact the overall product.

Considering context

I ask myself questions like: where is the user currently located, what device are they using, and are they focused? By taking the context into account, I can make more informed design decisions.

Simplicity and style

are not mutually exclusive. I believe that a great solution can be achieved under any circumstances, whether it’s developing a quick and affordable MVP to gather feedback or working on a complex, established service.

Accessibility

is a critical component, rather than an afterthought. After all, our users can include individuals with visual impairments, the elderly, or people with motor disabilities. Making our products easy to use for everyone is essential.
