Chapter VII

THE CONNECTION

“No man is an island, entire of itself;

every man is a piece of the continent,

a part of the main.”

“No man is an island, entire of itself;

every man is a piece of the continent,

a part of the main.”

“In the middle of the journey

of our life,

I came to myself, in a dark wood
where the direct way was lost.”

- John Donne

ABOUT / CHAPTER VI /

In moments of quiet reflection, with white tea in hand, and the haunting words

of Lovecraft and Poe as my muse, I embark on design journeys.

I’m a UX/UI designer, UX writer and microanimation specialist who thrives on turning ideas

into engaging, meaningful experiences. My creative process blends empathy, storytelling

and innovation – whether I’m designing solutions for global corporations or crafting

an AI-powered tennis app that helps players elevate their game.

Guided by my design ethos of insight, nostalgia, and creative freedom,

I craft high-fidelity mockups and interactive prototypes.

Every interaction is meticulously designed, every animation thoughtfully constructed,

and every piece of text artfully composed to tell the story that resonates.
