Hello, friend!

More about me

My education

I decided to switch professionally to the tech field in 2019 and completed the Ironhack Bootcamp for UX and UI in Berlin plus two further courses. The training is pretty much hands-on and gives a good overview of industry practices.
Also I am used to using software for creative tasks since pretty young age. My first freelancing assignment was in 2011.

Bio

I am a citizen of two states and have lived in three countries. I speak three languages fluently and I am in the process of learning  Hebrew (again). I have studied philosophy, logics, politics and economics, I have been doing arts and composing classical music intensively for several years and gave birth to a wonderful, intelligent and funny kid about 8 years ago.

My Strengths

I am interested in people and their stories, how people take control of their destiny on one side and how their experience shape them on the other. I like to integrate new facts into my world view. I apply a wide range of concepts while solving intellectual problems.

Sustanability

I dream of living in a world where innovation and the constant rise of living conditions for all people succeed with the help of sustainable technologies. Where consumption meets real, long-term needs, not creates new needs. I dream of a multilateral world in which we humans live in harmony with our natural environment.
