What I do

I go from research all the way to a working product, so less gets lost between design and build.

  1. Product Design

    I start with the people who’ll use the product, then work out flows, wireframes and prototypes. And I keep checking with them until it ships.

    • UX research
    • User flows & journey mapping
    • Prototyping
    • A/B testing
  2. UX/UI Design

    Web and mobile apps, dashboards and back-office systems. I take dense workflows and make them usable without a manual.

    • Web applications
    • Mobile apps
    • Dashboards
    • Back-office systems
  3. Design Systems

    Components, tokens and docs that designers actually want to read. I structure them around Atomic Design, so the team can move fast and stay consistent.

    • Architecture
    • Component libraries
    • Documentation
    • Workshops
  4. Front-End Development

    I can build what I design in HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Bootstrap. That makes handoffs faster and talking to developers easier.

    • HTML & CSS
    • JavaScript
    • Responsive interfaces
  5. AI-Assisted Product Building

    I use AI coding assistants to turn my designs into working products. I set the rules, make the calls and test every screen myself. The Marketing Content Manager is one I built this way, end to end.

    • AI coding assistants
    • Design to working product
    • Prompts & rules

About

Bringing design to humans and humans to design.

I’m a product designer based in Zagreb, working in digital design since 2004. My focus is on sales force automation, CRM, back-office systems and iGaming platform.

I’ve led a team of four designers. I built a design system from scratch and wrote its documentation too. I want interfaces to make sense on first use, and I check with real people that they do.
