UI/UX Designer - Pop.in
UI/UX Designer - Pop.in

Pop.in is all about playing live games with people, just like going to a party at a friend’s house. 

Whether it’s a casual game of cards or a bigger event where you can win prizes, pop.in is the place to be together when you're not, make new friends, and play awesome games. I love how this app looks now and I'm super proud I could help design it. Also, in times of pandemic, POP.IN is still evolving and helping people across the world to connect in an intimate, tailored way and have fun with each other.

UI/UX Designer - HAPPS.TV

Happs offers FREE world-class broadcasting tools, a community eager to collaborate, and a simple way for viewers to support creators financially. On Happs, viewers subscribe to broadcasters to get notified when they go live. During a broadcast, viewers can comment, ask questions and directly support broadcasters financially. My role was to design and refresh the already existing web and mobile app, aligning it with company goals and direction. I'm responsible for general UI and UX improvements, working directly with Co-Founder & Head of Product on delivering new features.

UI/UX Designer - Zrzutka.pl

The mobilka.pl mobile application is an incredible convenience for anyone who needs to collect money quickly and easily for any purpose. It is a crowdfunding app, similar to `Kickstarter` but instead of collecting for startups or projects, you collect for expensive medical procedures, animal shelters, experimental drugs for spinal muscular atrophy, or for elders who are alone during holidays, etc. It is a very special project, one that I'm using myself and I'm proud of.
