About me
I am a UI and web designer with a background in advertising graphics and online marketing. A logically thinking engineer, a conservative barrier avoider, and a lover of black tea.

In a nutshell
As a freelancer and agency graphic designer, I aim to bring the client's vision to life, no matter the constraints. Hard work and creativity are my means to surpass expectations and deliver captivating results. I have worked for various industries, preparing countless materials, some websites, concepts, or consulting ready-made solutions. I also collaborate on a deployed application. I am not a traditional UI/Web designer because my interests in design are broader. I honestly believe that to be a good designer you have to be curious about the world and constantly looking for something more.
I got my academic start in Engineering, I have over 4 years of experience in customer service and over 8 years as a visual designer - my professional career is a combination of a bit of luck and a lot of hard work.
Achievements that I am proud of
After a month of starting work, designing for the company's most important client;
after 6 months, taking over the department and organizing cooperation between
the production and sales departments; implementation of a website on Wordpress one afternoon; I've never missed a deadline.
My recipe for being a good co-worker and employee?
A high work ethic, sincere commitment, truthfulness, helpfulness, and honesty make
me a trustworthy and reliable collaborator with a creative flair.
Since 2015, I have been working as a visual designer and developed many skills, but I do not stop there. I continue to learn and grow just like the world around me. I am up to date with the news cheering the development of AI and the automation of designers' work.
