About Me

As the founder and design director at Madebymad, I focus on crafting impactful UX/UI solutions across the full design cycle, dedicated to ensuring that every project meets the top-tier standards. My portfolio spans global brands and startups across: ๐Ÿค– Logistics and Warehouse Robotics ๐Ÿ’ธ FinTech ๐Ÿš• Mobility ๐Ÿ› Real Estate ๐Ÿš‘ Healthcare โœˆ๏ธ Travel ๐Ÿ›’ E-commerce ๐Ÿ“ and more, with clients including Esquire, Miro, Martistel, HUMANS, Roborace, Charge Cars, Raiffeisen Bank, Unicredit Bank, Pins loyalty program (airBaltic), inDrive. I take personal responsibility for instilling a strong emphasis on user-centered, high-quality outcomes tailored to each clientโ€™s needs as our agency leads projects from initial research and strategy through to fully implemented design and ongoing support. Recent achievements that have been especially meaningful to me: ๐Ÿ— Leading the creation of a website for the high-growth warehouse automation startup Martistel, which was nominated for Awwwards.com and received Honorable Mention for its forward-thinking approach to design. ๐ŸฅŠ Leading the design of a website and mobile app from scratch for Bownce, a wellness company that offers an IoT device. This project earned recognition at the European Design Awards, winning an award for excellence in product innovation and design. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ Getting O-1 Extraordinary Ability visa approved, opening up new opportunities for collaborations with U.S.-based founders and brands. Teaching has been a defining part of my journey: from 2015 to 2022, I taught UX/UI as a lecturer, curator, and course director at leading design institutions, sharing real-world insights to develop the next generation of design talent. With a robust consulting and advisory background, I help startups unleash their full potential by merging technical insights with practical design strategies. Outside of work, Iโ€™m a devoted husband and a CrossFit enthusiast. Letโ€™s connect! My DMs are open and I'm always happy to chat with fellow founders and support various teams with design solutions.
