UX/UI Designer with a background in Architecture and 3D art
I blend empathy, strategic thinking, and thoughtful design to create user-centered solutions.
About me
I am a graduate of the Telerik Academy Upskill UX/UI program, where I immersed myself in human-centered design methods and applied them to my student project.
I hold a master’s degree in Architecture with a specialization in Interior Design from the University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy in Sofia, Bulgaria. My architectural background gave me a deep understanding of user needs and how to express them through color and form — skills that seamlessly translate to UX design.
With 8 years of experience in architectural visualizations, I’ve developed a keen eye for detail and a drive for pixel-perfect precision.
