Hi, I’m Katya, a UX Designer with over 10 years’ experience creating engaging digital products for real people
I see myself as a UX-heavy Product designer with a proven track record of delivering end-to-end design projects.
If I was to break it down, I would say I am:
55% UX
Gravitating towards strategy, problem definition and problem solving (user flows, customer journey and empathy mapping etc)
30% UI
Very comfortable working with existing brand guidelines and build upon basic design systems
15% Research
Familiar with different research methodologies, writing recruitment briefs, running and documenting testing sessions.
