So, what did I do so far?
- I finished my Interaction Design degree in Shenkar in 2009
- I worked in a design studio, where I learned from great designers and got a chance to work with some of the biggest corporations
- I worked in a web development company, where I learned to work well with developers, improved my FED skills and led a design team
- I had a startup, where I learned about business, entrepreneurship, moving fast and focus
- I had my own studio, where I got to use all of these skills
- For the past 2 years I’ve been working at Wix, where I get to work with a lot of very smart people on very cool things
Design + Technology + Business
I believe that to build good products, you need to “get” all 3 aspects. I’m at my best when integrating technology and design to create simple and usable products. Design is how things work and it's about understanding people. It should be innovative, user friendly and smart but it also needs to live in the real world, answer business goals and work within given constraints.
My Process
User research
Current system
Support and BI
Sketches
Wireframes
Prototypes
Other than design, I'm super passionate about cool innovative technology and introducing kids (especially girls) to all kinds of tech, so every 2 months or so I organize and run an Hour of Code activity. I'm also passionate about my kids, my dog, hackathons, books, sour patch kids and coffee.
