User Experience Designer passionate about creating impactful digital experiences.
What I'm looking for
I am a User Experience Designer with a strong background in Psychology, dedicated to crafting meaningful experiences that resonate with users. My journey has taken me through diverse companies, where I have honed my skills in understanding user behaviors and needs. I thrive in fast-paced environments, collaborating with cross-functional teams to transform ideas into reality.
Throughout my career, I have successfully led projects that involved user research, design system oversight, and the creation of interactive prototypes. My work at companies like Accenture and CompareEuropeGroup has allowed me to develop a keen eye for detail and a passion for enhancing user interfaces. I believe that great design is not just about aesthetics; it's about solving problems and improving the user journey.
As a highly collaborative team player, I continuously seek inspiration from art, nature, and technology to elevate my work. I am excited to bring my expertise in UX/UI design to new challenges and contribute to innovative projects that prioritize user experience.
