Skills
Visual Design, UI / UX. Web Design, Illustration

I'm a designer with 10+ years of professional experience. I'm currently 29 years old and located in Sofia, Bulgaria.  My strengths lie in Visual UI/UX for the Web & Desktop Apps.  I have a B.A. degree in Fine Arts so I also do illustration.

My journey started when I got accepted to the School of Computer Technology and Systems in Pravets, Bulgaria. I started developing websites using HTML,CSS and PHP back in 2005 and after I started learning design and Fine Arts in the University I slowly transitioned to Design. So I have a good understanding of Front-End and Back-End, as well.

I speak Bulgaria, Russian & English fluently. My nationality is Bulgarian, but I'm also half Russian on my mother's side.
