My projects

2025 - 2026
Website Design

Role: UX Design

2025

Current CBR website looks complicated to the users. The research showed that users (driving instructors) experience difficulties with navigating through the website. New design allows driving instructors have a clear dashboard with exams and candidates. Besides that, the navigation bar redesigned which makes navigation easier. 

Website Design

Role: UX Design

2025

Before the redesign, the website looked very plain, with no information about the trainings. 
New design have a clear structure & navigation. Potential clients can easily choose the trainings and available options.
Suggestions on building loyalty and trusted community will decrease level of churn.

App Design

Role: UX Design, Product Owner

2026 - Current

A social events app, built from scratch as Product Owner. Instead of a generic listings feed, the app matches people to events based on real interest — designed the core swipe-based discovery flow and interest-matching structure in Figma. Now running user interviews to validate the concept before moving into development.

About me

I create digital and offsite solutions that people enjoy using and keep coming back to. I do care how your customer receives the product from the awareness to the post-purchase state!

My journey began in the hospitality industry, where I focused on creating memorable experiences for people. That passion has stayed with me ever since. Today, I bring it into the digital world — designing seamless, thoughtful experiences across apps, websites, and services.

I believe great experiences should feel effortless, personal, and even a little delightful. Whether it’s simplifying a user journey or helping a product better fit people’s needs, my goal is always the same: to make interactions smoother, more human, and more impactful.
