About me
I consider myself a self-taught multimedia designer. I have experience in UX/UI design, web design, animation, web programming, e-commerce, flash developing, video editing and project managing. I was a multi-media director for an advertisement agency for five years. Then I turned a self employee for seven years. At the same time I was working for a science museum developing educational game modules. Nowadays, I have been working for more than one year and remotely for a Palo Alto, California based company, where I am the leading UX/UI designer for a Smart Home automaton App/product. I had the opportunity to work in Austria and Palo Alto with world-class IT teams. Now I have moved to London and even though I still work for this company, I have time and I look forward to work part-time for a project which I could give all I know as a designer and also I am very open to learn new things, moreover I am aware that that is a must have when it comes to technology.
