Hi! I’m Daria — a Senior UX/UI and Interaction Designer with ****8 years of experience designing intuitive, interactive interfaces across games, websites, applications, and AI products.
I co-founded ****an indie game studio and led the design of OVIVO, an award-winning title launched across six platforms, where I built mechanics, prototyped UX flows, and adapted interfaces for touch, console, and desktop.
Later, at WARGAMING, I was the first UI designer on a AAA title, STEEL HUNTERS, creating the UI style from scratch and owning it through production.
I design the kind of interactions that feel obvious once you use them. The fun part? They weren’t obvious when I started.
