ABOUT
All throughout my life I have been passionate about beauty and design. My first job was in the beauty industry as a hair stylist, and I eventually opened my own studio. I became interested in digital design after seeing how important technology was becoming in our lives and learned everything I could about it. I loved that I could make applications beautiful and easy to use and decided it would be my next career.
I started as a freelance graphic designer and created logos, websites and apps for clients. Then I got a job in a large company that helps people all over the country and was very happy to be part of such a large project. This was a very high impact role because the website had millions of users and my contributions were made directly on the interface. My next role was a Yandex, Russia's largest tech company, as a mentor helping students become designers. I went through a difficult path of learning from scratch to a mentor and wanted to help others who were on a similar journey.
I also run a YouTube channel to help beginner designers and volunteer my skills for schools. Originally from Russia, I love learning about the world and have visited 37 countries, 13 of them by bike. I currently in Southern California.
