Hi again! I’m Kerry from Greece and I can be described as natural-born problem solver and a constant seeker of great experiences.
I consider the fields of design and technology my playground where ideas come to life. I get involved in all the phases of the development of a product keeping in the center of the process the user.
You can say I act as a user advocate.
My career goal is to be part of a team that wants to make a difference in people’s lives.
WHAT I CAN OFFER
USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN
Based on user research and user testing with the appropriate UXD tools and metrics. Not a lone wolf that comes up with the UX.
USER INTERFACE DESIGN
My BFs are Figma, Mobbin, Baymard.com. Whatever helps to design a great seamless experience through all the devices.
PRODUCT OWNERSHIP
As Scrum Product Owner, I work closely with the team to achieve the goals and offer quality to the end user.
DESIGN THINKING
Is the process I wish to follow when a change is needed or a problem needs solution. It’s empathizing with the user and inclusive for the stakeholders and the team.
