Testimonials

“Olena's energy, dedication, and keen eye for visual design is unmatched. Olena was a pleasure to work with during the BRIDGEGOOD UX Design Apprenticeship. She is a natural team leader, with a genuine passion for UX design. She was easy to talk to, an approachable collaborator, and a creative problem solver during our design sprints. I truly enjoyed working with her this summer - I know she will be a bright and welcoming addition to any team.
"I'm pleased to be able to recommend my colleague Olena without any hesitation. Olena is very motivated and passionate about user research as informing formative design for our very complex B2B application, used by design and cost engineers in manufacturing. I have seen her plan and run user research for discovery and also testing of prototypes, she does a good job of keeping stakeholders in the loop and works well with her partners in product and engineering, as well as our allied services. Her designs consume the actionable insights in her research and she does a good job of building out workflows to fit users' mental model. She brings all her experience and education to the table in tackling all kinds of subject matter, whether it's design for an internal tool, sustainability, or infographic displays of engineering information. I have high expectations for her future leadership in our industry."
