Nadya Galahova

As a mid-level UX/UI designer, I specialize in creating thoughtful, user-centered design solutions backed by research and real-world feedback. I thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with cross-functional teams to design intuitive, scalable digital experiences—from wireframes to high-fidelity UI. My passion lies in improving product usability through iteration and testing, ensuring that the designs I create solve real problems for real users.

Currently, I am working at Afterglow, where I lead the design of intuitive user interfaces for mobile and web platforms, enhancing user experiences for frontline employees in the retail and hospitality sectors. I conduct user research and usability testing to gather insights, iterating on designs to align with user needs and business objectives. My experience includes developing and maintaining design systems, presenting concepts to stakeholders, and effectively communicating design rationale.

With a comprehensive background in UX/UI design, I have honed my skills in various tools such as Figma, Adobe XD, and Sketch. I am adept at running user interviews, usability tests, and surveys to validate assumptions and improve user experience. My education in UX/UI design and landscape architecture has equipped me with strong spatial awareness and visual design principles, allowing me to create functional and aesthetically pleasing designs that enhance user interaction.
