Hello, I'm Anastasia!

"Design isn’t just about screens. It’s about deliberate decisions, validated through testing, and refined through iteration."

Leadership & Contribution

Mentorship & Team Development

I’ve mentored junior designers across multiple roles, supporting their growth in product thinking, execution quality, and cross-functional collaboration.

Cross-Cultural Perspective

Having worked and lived across Europe, Asia, and the U.S., I’ve collaborated with diverse teams and clients across cultures. This experience strengthened my ability to design for global audiences and navigate complex communication environments.

Problem Solving

Most design problems are clarity problems. My role is to untangle complexity, define what matters, and move the product forward with intention.

Community & Responsibility

I’ve supported refugee and nonprofit initiatives internationally, contributing to community-based efforts focused on stability and access.

Working in these environments strengthened my perspective on responsible decision-making, cultural sensitivity, and designing with real-world impact in mind.

Organizational Leadership

As part of a company event committee, I led the planning and coordination of internal initiatives, managing logistics, communication, and cross-team alignment.

This experience reinforced my operational discipline and ability to execute effectively beyond core product responsibilities.

Brand & Art Direction

Beyond product design, I directed photoshoots within my projects, ensuring cohesion between product, brand, and visual storytelling.

I’ve also appeared in national campaigns and homepage features, collaborating closely with studio and marketing teams.

Material Practice

Beyond digital products, I work with acrylic and oil painting, a practice that sharpens my sensitivity to color, balance, and visual storytelling.
