a little bit about me
I grew up in Bulgaria, surrounded by art, music, stories and games. Imagination was encouraged, creativity was a must and finding joy in the little interactions was key. All things I still enjoy daily!
My values are reflected in every screen I prototype, every user flow I mock up, and every workshop I host. I aim to create playful designs with a purpose and meaning that puts the user experience at the heart of every project.
I am on the hunt for the next creative challenge. Maybe you have a project in mind?
