A little about me ...

My heart and mind are in design.
Although as a math nerd I started studying Computers and Programming, my creative crave led me to Architecture. A rare combination that puts me in a great knowledge position as a User Experience Designer.

I have solid design knowledge. I graduated from Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania with a degree in Architecture. Afterwards, I had the opportunity to work on a diverse pallet of projects, ranging from houses, apartment buildings, historic building restoration, shopping centers to urbanism and interior design.

As part of my UX Design training, I successfully completed The Informal School of IT Cluj-Napoca UX Design program and Google UX Design Professional Certificate.

As an Architect, the user-experience and user-centered design process comes naturally to me. It is the way I was trained to think and also worked for many years. I am comfortable working in diverse teams. Because every project has its own unique set of challenges and issues, I worked in multidisciplinary teams that changed from project to project and, in many cases, even from one stage of the project to the next stage.

I know how to find the right solution which is not only a beautiful design, but also has the best value in terms of functionality and usability. User-centered design is how being an Architect works, since by designing something I am solving my user problems or needs.

When I am not at my desk ....

Since early childhood, designing and creating stuff have been my passion and hobby. In my free time, you can probably find me outdoors enjoying nature, gardening, or building some DIY furniture, every time learning a little bit more about how to work with wood and use power tools.

Over the last few years, I have built some amazing pieces of furniture that I am very proud of. Not because they are perfect and flawless, but because the things I have designed and created serve their purpose very well and I can see my errors and mistakes in every project and how much I learned from those experiences. There is not a room in my house or my granny house that doesn't have a DIY project of mine.

Besides plants I am also a huge animal lover!
