I am Nikoleta, a multifaceted creative, based in Amsterdam. I'm a UX designer with a background in architecture and branding. My work ranges from solo projects to large team efforts on projects of all sizes. As an architect I have worked on projects in more than 10 countries, including South Korea, Canada, Vietnam, Malta, Netherlands, Saudi Arabia, USA, and Greece.
My background in architecture has helped me develop soft skills as stakeholder management, empathy, problem-solving, organization and communication. My specialization in Computational design for architecture, means I have a deep understanding of scripting and technical skills necessary to develop a UX project. I have over 10 years of experience in 3D modeling and design in a wide range of software, allowing me to adapt to any digital environment easily.
I recently completed Google's UX Design Professional Certificate, where I learned all about UX research (user interviews, surveys, competitor analysis), creating user journeys and personas, designing low and high-fidelity prototypes on Figma, design systems, usability testing, responsive design and accessibility.
