Bio
Roy Shi
There's not enough room here for me to say all the great things I can say about Mariia - both personally and professionally. To start, Mariia is extremely capable. If you don't have time to spec a specific feature in great detail, she's happy to be self-directed and present you a menu of options based on current best practices. Likewise, when you have specific concerns or desires, she's happy to incorporate them into the final working product. She's happy to take feedback but also brings her own ideas to the table (especially if you want them). As such, she's an excellent partner that allows an organization to work quickly and efficiently but still truly leverage her expertise while never losing internal brand identity. Mariia is also very fast and communicative. She can be trusted to work quickly and effectively to deliver multiple iterations so that it's easy to hone in to the final desired product. There's never really a question of "where did my hours go?" - instead there's always plenty of work product from Mariia to review. And likewise, whenever issues or the unexpected do come up, she communicates early and clearly. These are the things that quickly build trust when working with Mariia. Mariia's skills are also very broad. She's helped us through so many different stages of design. From initial concept, to user testing, to communication with dev, to so many more things. She's been invaluable for us actually getting things done and doing it well. Mariia's ability to understand, incorporate feedback, and take action in a variety of areas make her an invaluable asset to any team. Lastly, Mariia is fun. She is delightful and easy to get along with. When things are stressful, she can help the team see the humor in it all. She is a consummate professional and team player. I cannot recommend Mariia enough. Sincerely, Roy.

It is my pleasure to recommend Mary for her outstanding work as a UX Designer. Mary is an incredibly talented designer who has impressed me with her attention to detail, ability to create complex user journeys, and her skill at designing over 150 screens in the 6 months period when we worked together. Working with Mary has been a truly positive experience. Her ability to quickly understand project requirements and design solutions that are both beautiful and functional is a testament to her expertise as a UX Designer. I have been particularly impressed with her ability to think outside of the box and come up with innovative solutions to design challenges. Mary is not only a skilled designer but also a pleasure to work with. She has a positive attitude, is responsive to feedback, and always goes above and beyond to ensure that her work meets and exceeds expectations. Her dedication to her craft is evident in the quality of her work and the way she approaches every project with enthusiasm and creativity. I highly recommend Mary for any UX design project. She is an exceptional talent and I am confident that she will make a valuable contribution to any team or organization she works with. Sincerely, Nick
