A little bit about myself

Born in Poland, studying in Poland and Portugal, living and working in Poland, Scotland, Portugal, Turkey, USA, and now in Spain –has gifted me with a perspective that combines elements from both the East and the West; artfully balancing extravagance with simplicity. My ability to empathize and pick up on cultural nuances has been shaped by the diversity of cultures and languages I was surrounded with.

I am deeply curious and empathetic, with a passion for figuring out why people do what they do.

In my free time, I like to spend active time with my family, travel, and doodle- I like to say that in my previous life, I was an artist - feel free to check out my art portfolio ;)

MY UX PROCESS: A Blend of Adaptability, Collaboration, and Data-Driven Insights

While there's no single, definitive UX process, all successful approaches share common goals: understanding user needs, aligning with business objectives, defining problems, crafting solutions, and iterating through testing and refinement. My UX process embraces these principles while incorporating additional ingredients to navigate and shape positive outcomes in the dynamic world of product design.

• Collaboration: The Cornerstone of Success

  I wholeheartedly believe that collaboration is the driving force behind effective UX design. A shared understanding of the project's overarching goals and open communication between team members, stakeholders, developers, and other designers are essential for aligning UX visions with project objectives. I actively foster a collaborative environment, ensuring that everyone is on the same page and contributing their unique perspectives.

• Adaptability: Embracing the Iterative Journey

  My UX process is not a rigid, linear path; it's an iterative dance with the evolving needs of each project. I approach each project with a mindset of adaptability, recognizing that the path to success may not always be straightforward. I embrace the inevitable twists and turns, utilizing user feedback and testing to continuously refine my designs. This iterative approach allows me to identify and address usability issues early on, preventing costly mistakes and ensuring a positive user experience.

• Navigating the Maze of Data

  User research, both quantitative and qualitative, plays a pivotal role in my UX process. I gather insights and real data on users' needs, behaviors, and aspirations, seeking to understand the "why" behind their actions. I collaborate with data analysts to complement qualitative findings with quantitative, measurable data. This deep understanding of user behavior informs my design decisions, ensuring that the final product not only meets or exceeds business goals but also seamlessly integrates into users' lives.

• Understanding the Bigger Picture: Context is Key

  I recognize that no feature or improvement exists in isolation. To create holistic and impactful designs, I strive to understand the broader context of the product landscape. This includes understanding the product's overall strategy, marketing funnels, competition, and how each feature fits into the overall user journey. This broader understanding ensures that my designs align with the product's overall vision and contribute to its success.

In my experience, a successful UX process is not just about following a specific set of steps; it's about embracing a philosophy that combines deep user insights, collaborative teamwork, and adaptability to the ever-changing needs of each project. This approach empowers me to create products that are not only visually appealing but also genuinely useful and valuable to users, ultimately driving business success.
