Hi there!
Thank you for visiting my web site.
My background is in Science and Visual Design, in which I hold a Bachelor of Science in Astronomy degree and a Visual Communication Certificate. I began working in design field in 1995, couple of years after I immigrated to the United States from Russia. Over the years of my carrier I gradually moved from print design to web design and now to UI/UX design. As I had a strong interest in the visual and graphic side of web design, I learned and used extensively Adobe Creative Suite, such as Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Acrobat. Since my shift to UI/UX design four years ago, I also learned and used on the regular basis wireframe/prototyping tool Axure PR Pro. I’m familiar with HTML and CSS on the level of reading and understanding the code.
I can create a wireframe, but I can also turn it into something elegant. I am comfortable exploring the needs of differing audiences, from children to adults, students to teachers, entrepreneurs to civil servant employees of U.S. Government. I know how to take a user-centered approach without losing sight of business goals. I work efficiently, and am comfortable with the different UX concepts and UI design patterns.
I would be pleased to discuss my candidacy in greater depth. Please call me at (301)-655-4560 so we can set up a meeting time that works for you.
