Welcome to my creative journey

TLDR

I’m a Senior Product Designer with 8+ years of experience in fintech, banking, and public sector industries. I craft elegant, user-centered solutions for complex problems, backed by strong skills in user research and testing, accessibility, and agile workflows. I’ve led digital design across SaaS platforms, eCommerce storefronts, and social media, focusing on impact and usability.

About Me

I was born in St. Petersburg, USSR in a family of artists, where creativity was a way of life. After formal training in drawing and painting under Russian academic artists and graduating from OCAD University, I pursued a career that bridges visual art, design, and technology and solves real-world problems.

Fun Facts:

I speak English, Russian and Hebrew and my multicultural background often informs my design perspective.

I love hiking with my family and our Australian Shepherd, Shadow, recharging in the great outdoors.

I discovered Japanese indigo dyeing during maternity leave and have been exploring the craft ever since.

Let’s work together.
