Background
I’m a designer with 8+ years of experience working on user interfaces for complex systems. Some of the projects I've worked on:
— Financial services
— Medical software
— CRM systems
— Internal tools for customer managers
— Other SaaS products and web tools

Expertise
— Collaboration. Collecting business requirements and communication with business people, product owners, and other stakeholders
— Research. Conducting UX testing and observing and interviewing users
— UI prototyping. Creating wireframes and prototypes for collecting information inside the company as well as conducting user testing
— Design systems. Creating and maintaining design systems, creating documentation, and delivering components
— Technical knowledge. Delivering designs and understanding technical requirements

Design approach
My role as a designer is to help companies to improve their products with a focus on real users and real business goals. I start my work on a task by collecting information and end delivering the final design. Depending on the project and circumstances, I can collect information from users, stakeholders on the team, or from other departments. I always try to create wireframes as soon as possible. Wireframes and interactive prototypes can be used internally, as well as for conducting user testing.
User-centered, evidence-based approach
As a product designer, I want to make informed design solutions and help real users with real problems. There are many ways we can become aware of users' needs and pain points, such as communicating with people inside the company, interviewing expert users, observing new users, and checking data as well as tech support compliances. It's important to me to work for a company that is open to the user-centered, evidence-based approach and understands that there is no way to create a sufficient UX without users.


An international team
I have experience working in teams with members placed in different countries, and even fully remote teams. I’ve worked with people from Estonia, Poland, the UK, the USA, Canada, India, and Brasil. Learning new things from people around the world is one of the things I enjoy about my work. Even though I am confident in the English language, constantly improving my communication abilities is one of my highest priorities.
