My career so far...

I've graduated with a Masters degree in psychology from the University of Pecs, Hungary. I studied cognitive and neuropsychology for five years and wrote my thesis about the connection between video gaming preferences, habits, motivations and aggression. I focused on common misconsemptions about video gaming and violence, and proved that gaming can be beneficial for cognitive abilities and emotions as well.

I completed my internship at a company which main focus was gamification. I participated in brainstorming sessions about what can be done with gamification, together with designers, content writers and even dungeon masters (yes, the Dungeons & Dragons kind).

After I graduated, I started to study design and completed an online course in graphic design at the California Institute of the Arts. I continued my studies specifically in UI and UX design and a bit of Wordpress development as well, on Udemy, Skillshare and other platforms. Later, I was employed as a designer and wordpress developer and I was tasked to build a website with accessible psychology tests for a wider audiance.

I was involved in multiple projects as a freelancer both as brand- and UI/UX designer. I made the design of a software for the shutter industry where the main focus was waste management and workflow optimization for shutter factories. I've started working on a VR experience related to astronomy in my freetime in collaboration with my husband who is a Unity developer.

My most recent job was as a principal product designer at BitNinja Technologies, a company that's main focus is cybersecurity. I've been working as part of the product team for more then 2 years and brought many designs to life in collaboration with front- and backend developers, the marketing and the customer success team.
