In my work, I rely on research, focusing on real business and user problems, and solving them at various levels. Moreover, I enjoy crafting unique product positioning that endears the product to its users.
Over the past 9 years, I have accumulated experience in various roles, from ordinary to senior and lead designer positions. Such a diverse experience allows me to dive into design processes effectively while having a broad picture in mind.
