INTRODUCTION_____
I'm a senior product designer and lifelong creator of digital solutions. I'm immersed in visual engineering for almost 10 years, and as a design strategist, taking responsibility for both the experience, derived from the interface of the product, and the performance, attached to the visual architecture of the product. In the last couple of years, I've been working with early stage technology startups leading the design (mostly SaaS web/desktop applications and marketplaces), and advising on engagement, content architecture and UI direction.
As a mentor, my emphasis is on developing the next generation of design leaders, by establishing a creative environment where the young designers' interest can be explored and galvanized into action. I'm looking for the self-motivation in my creatives, where is it, what's the drive behind it, and how it responds to others' creative input.
