BIO

BIO

Product Designer with over 6 years of experience in the iGaming, Event Matchmaking, and HealthTech industries. I have a proven track record of designing both web and mobile applications, with a primary focus on SaaS platforms, dashboards, CRM, and CMS tools. I specialize in solving complex logical challenges, such as building advanced wizards and multi-step user flows that handle large amounts of data.

I see myself more as a researcher and a logician than a traditional visual artist. I enjoy breaking down complicated business requirements and turning them into functional, organized systems. While I have a strong foundation in the principles of aesthetics, I primarily use design as a tool to solve problems. I focus on how a product works "under the hood" to make sure it is technically feasible and meets user goals.

Most of my work has been on internal tools (B2E), where the main challenge is managing different resource configurations across various global markets and geo-locations. I also have experience delivering B2C products for global audiences. I have experience with various types of user testing, including 1-on-1 usability interviews, and I use AI tools (Claude, Lovable, Figma AI) and Synthetic User Testing to accelerate prototyping and the feedback process.
