2022 wasn't the best for me professionally. Got laid-off to a job market freshly filled with tons of super-talented competition. Talking about tech layoffs, it’s easy to say “oh, those people will be fine”, but here is a summary of my search for work since August. Spent most of my waking hours searching, interviewing, getting feedback and refining my resume / portolio. Being based in East EU didn’t help my odds, but it has been brutal and my heart goes out to anyone affected. #ux #layoffs

I’m a generalist designer with a flair for discovering user needs and solving complex problems. I also love the technical and operational part of the design practice – making design systems and various other tools that help us work more effectively, getting together with cross-functional teams and figuring out how we can collaborate better and constantly help evolve our design methods. When I’m not knee-deep in Miro boards; Dovetail tags; Google docs; Git repos or zoomed-in at a 500% in Figma, I like to climb on top of big rocks, read & write about DesingOps and perpetually create helpful things with technology.
