UX/UI Product Designer creating user-centric designs.

Romania

Hi there! I'm Rob, a UX/UI Product Designer dedicated to creating experiences that effectively align with both business objectives and user needs. In the last six years, my professional path has led me through London, Barcelona, and Bucharest, where I've honed my skills in SaaS platforms, mobile apps, and no-code sites. Whether working independently or as part of a team, I specialize in synthesizing diverse ideas into cohesive, user-centric designs.

A rewarding part of my journey in product design so far has been winning the #1 Best Remote Work Tool in 2021 and the #2 Best SaaS Product in 2022 from Product Hunt as the leader of Sessions' product design team.
