Bio
Prashant Kashyap
Within this small UX space, If you get a chance to meet amazing talents, it just adds up to your growth and progress. I had the privilege to work with Kyriakos, who has a unique attention to detail and a problem-solving mindset that assuredly makes him a superb UX researcher. He is a humble, friendly, and a great professional who always drives the team to achieve extraordinarily-he is great to work with.

I rarely come across real talents who stand out like Kyriakos. I had the pleasure of working with Kyriakos for more than a year at the European Commission, collaborating on several project teams. Kyriakos’s ability to handle multiple projects and different stakeholders was unlike any I’ve seen before it made a dramatic increase in the productivity level of our project. Kyriakos is a master at his craft with profound knowledge and understanding of design systems from the very first element designed to the last component implemented, his technical skill would usually come in handy when having meetings with developers where he was able to converse with them on very technical subjects. I would recommend Kyriakos, and I am sure that he would excel in being part of, or leading any team, and I hope to get to work with him in the future again myself.
