About

Thanks for stopping by. Read below to learn more about myself and my background.

Background

I'm a UX designer based in Estonia with a Computer Science degree and a current focus on Interaction Design. My work sits at the intersection of technical understanding and user-centered thinking. I like to understand the "why" behind user behavior before deciding on the "how." You can see this in practice in the My Work section.

Before moving fully into design, I worked as a Junior Systems Analyst at Askend and as a Strategy and Innovation Intern at SEB, where I got first-hand experience analyzing requirements, evaluating user journeys, researching future trends in mobile banking, and designing UI prototypes for internal tools.
