The marriage of my engineering background and love of art helps me see the structure and beauty in everything at once.
I believe design is a great device for visualising the unexplainable, and I enjoy seeing the detail behind things. When facing something insurmountable, the best place to start is by breaking it down by using practical and logical thinking, a process I relish. As an agilest, I also believe that Agile is a guiding light that can help navigate through these challenges, helping me to reach positive outcomes consistently.
My contact details:
My main responsibility is optimising user journeys in our product, such as tenancy agreement or inspection report creation. While working closely with multiple product managers to improve our wizards, I focus on customer experience, technical limitations and business KPIs, which include international initiatives.
As the first designer of the fast-growing startup I’m acting as a founding designer. I'm creating our digital atomic design system and style guide. For this I contemplate existing functionalities, future requirements and design trends, while creating a new look and feel that is suitable for the Norwegian and German market too.
I also supply management with visual presentation of our progress for board meetings and help with the implementation of scrum, which is a brand new concept to the development team.

Focused on optimising digital upgrade journeys to help keep existing customers. I created interactive prototypes of journey flows using Sketch and Invision. I took part in user testing, then fed back my insights to my team to create actions, possible A/B testing and iterate. I personalised and tailored direct marketing campaigns to support churn improvement plans and improve upgrade conversion. This includes landing pages, emails, MMS and GIF. By taking ownership of all retention creatives, my squad has brought everything in-house. I was instrumental in supporting huge delivery tasks surrounding the iPhone launches. I also worked closely with the offshore team, sharing ideas on best practice. I worked fully agile, in 2-week sprints.

Always agile at work and in my personal life. I worked in design swarms for Christmas, Black Friday and Winter Sale, successfully managing a phenomenally high workload in a very short time scale. Balanced work with daily stand ups, scrum boards and agile mindset.
Received the Star Award at VSSB for demonstrating outstanding time management and communication skills, and always being ready to help with a positive and upbeat attitude in the team. At Vodafone UK my team received the Best Squad of the Year Award.
Trained new graphic designers at Limegift Zrt. and VSSB to become fully integrated team members. I also captained my basketball team to a gold medal at the Budapest Championships and bronze at the Hungarian Championships.
I love skiing, hula dancing, playing squash, basketball, cycling, going to concerts, singing, hiking, exploring new restaurants and recipes, judging art exhibitions and making models. I’m a fan of brutalist art, design and architecture and also have a soft spot for Bauhaus.
