I'm a Ukrainian-American UX designer.
I'd love to do it all: art, social work, research.
Five years working with the houseless community living on the
streets of Portland had given me one of the greatest gift of all;
the ability to listen, to understand, to connect.
Human connection and understanding has not only guided
my previous career, but it has also had a lifelong impact on my future.
I bring a human-centered process to all of my design work,
as I know its power and importance.
I've transitioned into UX with a whole toolkit of skills
that I am excited to utilize.
In my free time,
you can find me backpacking, snowboarding,
painting and creating digital visuals to healing sounds.
