Digitain

Product Designer

At Digitain, I successfully managed two projects simultaneously: Fast Games products and a Casino application. For the Fast Games project, I addressed issues such as an unorganized structure and information overload. Through extensive research, I implemented a generic information architecture and a unique style to ensure consistency and foster a cohesive brand identity across all Fast Game products. Additionally, I redesigned an existing Casino Application, gaining valuable insights into user needs and pain points through in-depth exploration of existing casino web interfaces. Collaboration was integral to my role, as I worked closely with the UX research team to conduct user interviews and with developers to ensure design feasibility.

SoftConstruct

Product Designer

During my time at Softcontract, I gained insights into the betting and gambling industry, focusing on gamification principles. I applied this knowledge while designing interfaces for promotion campaigns and landing pages. Additionally, I worked on SpringBuilder, a website builder enabling partners to create their own casino and sportsbook platforms. My approach involved designing solutions that align with business objectives while analyzing players' behavior and experience.

UI/UX Designer

My key projects included redesigning the content management system for the client and developing a CRM system for a banking website.

Naghash Wines

Creative Director

Naghash was a business I co-founded with a friend. Our distinctiveness stemmed from hand-painting exquisite designs onto wine bottles, which we subsequently sold through online channels. In my role as Co-founder and Creative Director, I was responsible for creating customized content for targeted social media platforms, coordinating photoshoots, enhancing images through editing, and engaging in customer interactions.
