I'm Masha (aka Mariya), your go-to for all things design systems.
I am currently based in the lovely city of Vienna, Austria.

With a passion that's been brewing for over 9 years, my journey has taken me from crafting user interfaces and conducting deep-dive user research to now focusing on building robust, user-centered design systems.

What drives me? It's all about connecting with how people interact with technology—getting to the heart of their feelings, thoughts, and actions. I'm all about collaboration, working hand-in-hand with teams across the board to bring these systems to life.

Finding my place in the world of design has been a rewarding journey. I'm lucky to have found my niche in a field I adore, where I can blend my love for design with the impact it has on everyday experiences.
