quick intro about my job

I'm a product designer based in Berlin, Germany. Currently working as a freelance and developing my own app Underhype.

Before that, I led a team of UX writers at the enterprise-size tech company Yandex, where we built a neobank for 60 million users.

Career overview

2026

Product designer and owner

Underhype is a web app for planning a trip to Sweden. It's my own product: I came up with the idea, checked out the market, designed, and built the app.

The MVP launched on June 1, 2026, with a freemium model. Premium features — like deeper trip planning and precise budgeting — are arriving later this year.

2018...2023

Senior UX writer, later — lead UX writer

Together with my team, I built interfaces for Yandex Money — a neobank with 60 million users.

Led a team of 10 writers: managed tasks, built guidelines, mentored, and hired people.

Outside work

Into analog things: filter coffee by hand, vinyl records, baking banana bread — and excessive workouts :)

Big fan of interior design, specifically Mid-Century Modern — one love!
