Let’s talk

Hi, I’m Julia — a product designer from Warsaw.

I’ve spent 7 years designing web and mobile products in fintech, crypto and travel. I like to start from zero: research, scope, design system, and then shipping together with developers.

How I work

01

Understand the problem

I talk to the business and to users first. What are we really solving?

02

Research

Competitors, market and data. Then I find the gaps and cut the scope.

03

Design & system

Flows, screens and components that grow with the product.

04

Ship & QA

Clear specs for developers, then I check the build myself.
