About
As a senior product designer, I'm very passionate about designing things from scratch to production with high attention to details.
I like both to work with early-stage startups and established products that are focused to create a magnificent user experience and achieve business goals.
Top skills-sets: user interviews, UX-testing, competitive research, JTBD, product design and prototyping.

I designed MVP which was converted in a seed investment round, created main landing pages for talents and employers, and also helped to launch some new features. As a team, we reached more than 10k users just in a few months.
