About
Hi! I’m Maria (she/her). I’m a UX/UI designer with freelance, agency, in-house, B2B, and B2C experience. I am endlessly fascinated by the way humans interact with technology, which is why I pursued UX/UI design. I am also passionate about accessible and inclusive design, gamification, and sustainable design practices.
In my free time I like to dance, garden, and hang out with my cats. I also love to travel, camp, and hike. Sometimes I joke that my hobby is collecting hobbies, since I seem to pick up something new every few weeks.
My favourite colour is yellow, but a yellow website is tough to do so I had to settle for mustard. Sesame is my personal brand, it’s based on the notion of personal discovery. Open your sesame!
