My expertise
Research
I research user needs, behaviors, and pain points through methods like interviews, surveys, and usability testing to provide actionable insights, contributing to the development of user-friendly and functional products.
UX/UI Design
I create user friendly designs from sketching, through wireframing, to visual design and work closely with developers to ensure a great overall experience. All of this is well tested by users to ensure that their needs are reflected.
Branding, design
I help companies create a strong, consistent identity by creating visually engaging and meaningful designs that reflect their values. I focus on logo creation, colour schemes, typography and other design elements to create a memorable and cohesive brand presence.
Coaching
I teach and mentor others, sharing my knowledge and experience of design principles, user research, prototyping and testing. I guide individuals and teams to develop their skills and create user-centred designs that are both functional and intuitive.

About me
I am a passionate UX/UI designer who loves turning complex ideas into simple, intuitive designs. With a focus on understanding user needs, I dive deep into research and testing to make sure every design decision enhances the user experience. I also enjoy sharing your knowledge through lecturing and mentoring, helping others grow and find their way in the design world. Whether it’s crafting a strong brand identity or creating functional interfaces, you’re driven by a desire to make things work better for people.
My work reflects both my creativity and my commitment to creating meaningful, user-centered solutions. With my sunny, positive, and open-minded personality, I bring warmth and honesty to every project, making collaboration enjoyable and inspiring for everyone around me.

Forendors
Forendors is a platform that connects creators with their audience. The goal was to create a mobile application for an existing web platform. An interesting aspect of the project was that we kickstarted it with a Design Sprint that allowed us to focus on the most valuable features of the application and test them in a short period of time.

Forendors je platforma, která spojuje tvůrce s jejich publikem. Cílem bylo vytvořit mobilní aplikaci pro stávající webovou platformu. Zajímavým aspektem projektu bylo, že jsme jej zahájili Design Sprintem, který nám umožnil zaměřit se na nejcennější funkce aplikace a otestovat je v krátkém čase.
