About

I'm your startup's Swiss army knife — whether it's designing, strategizing, or just making sure things don't fall apart.

Side Projects

2022
VIVITA BASE - Web platform for teaching kids how to code

VIVITA BASE is an online platform aimed at educating children on the basics of coding. It's been developing as a startup within the Viviata company (creativity accelerator for kids).


The initial idea was to create engaging learning experiences tailored to meet young learners' specific needs.

As part of the initial development team, I contributed by conducting user interviews, performing market analysis, and creating the initial designs for the platform. This included the main user flows, wireframes of the website, student dashboard, and profile settings.

The project started as an educational platform, however, later it fully pivoted into the creation of an educational game.
