Preply

Since 2022

Over the past three years, I designed multiple iterations that transformed Preply's app, covering onboarding, tutor search, scheduling, checkout flow improvements, and more. I also worked on the company's rebranding, redesigning Preply's design system, and creating a new iconography system. Additionally, I collaborated on the design system by documenting and refining app component guidelines to ensure clarity and alignment across the organization. Check out Preply on Mobbin.

I also led the Driver Design Principles project and contributed to FreeNow's design system, ensuring coherence and quality across driver, rider, app, and web experiences.

2018 - 2019

As part of the Customer Experience team, I worked with Mango's mobile app team to bridge the gap between e-commerce and retail shopping. My work focused on customer-centric experiences that increased app sales, strengthened brand presence, and improved in-store interactions like the app's self-checkout.

Using a shared design system, I developed mobile-first solutions across eDreams' four brands: eDreams, Opodo, GoVoyages, and Travellink. These solutions support over a million monthly users across 40+ countries and 15 languages.
