About me

Hi there! I’m currently finishing my Master’s in Human-Computer Interaction Design in London. For my final project, I spent three months researching how relocation has impacted the financial habits and strategies of Belarusian migrants in Poland. The main outcome of my work was a set of design recommendations on how fintech solutions can better support migrants in adapting to a new country.


My journey into this field started with my love for design, technology, psychology, and a passion for solving problems. I began as a Product Designer during my internship at Gismart, where I worked on designing the onboarding flow for a face fitness app. I had the chance to collaborate closely with researchers, designers, and data analysts to strategize how we could attract more users to the app, which involved tackling a lot of strategic tasks like user acquisition planning and engagement optimization.


From there, I joined Vention, where I had the opportunity to collaborate with clients from around the world across various industries, including fintech, healthcare, and e-commerce.


Seeking new challenges, I then moved to Scandiweb, where I led and conducted UX research for projects like a forex trading platform and an insurance website. Our core focus at the company is e-commerce, where we aimed to deliver the best online experiences to customers globally. In addition to my UX research work, I was also involved in creating strategic roadmaps for several clients, demonstrating how they could expand and grow their business by exploring new opportunities and potential directions. This strategic aspect allowed me to work closely with clients to not only solve immediate UX challenges but also help shape their long-term vision.


Outside of work, I’m a coffee enthusiast (as you can probably tell from the photo ☕️) and I’m always up for chatting about new tech startups or brainstorming projects with friends. So, if you’ve got an idea, feel free to reach out—I’d love to help you bring it to life!
