I'm Mary, a product designer with a focus on user-centered and empathetic design. I've spent 10 years designing for consumer products, helped companies of all sizes feel the value of design and design thinking.

Things I care about:
• Business's goals • 
I believe that any designer should know product metrics and their relations with product success.

• Real user's needs • 
In practice, I learned that if don't pay attention to this item, then the product cannot be successful. 

 • Design process •  
It's important for me that later in the future for everyone would be comfortable working with design files: whether it's a developer or a newcomer in the design team.

Has experience in leading a team of designers, experienced in finding and hiring employees, experienced in leading a group of interns. As well as conducting internal workshops, building and optimizing inner processes.
Work in a product company → Opportunity to influence product development.
I would love to create and build a team of designers, help with processes.
