about me

My name is Ivona Shishmanova, Iva for short.
Designer who is usually making an impact in tech start-ups.

I consider myself a holistic practitioner; working on bits of product, business, processes, and systems.

In my free time when I’m not designing or reading, you can find me working out in the local gym or being cozy and playing video games.

What do I specialise in?

I spend most of my time designing for entrepreneurs, and I love innovation and speculative interfaces.

Despite the instability and uncertainty of the start-up scene, it is area where I found purpose and meaning in my work.

In the last 4 years, I’ve been exploring the nuances of digital product design — design business design, service design, and UX.

I make a conscious choice to work on projects that carries impact whenever possible.

WHAT SOFTWARES I USE

I use a variety of software as a designer to maximize productivity, selecting tools based on their ability to make my work more manageable and efficient.

In my day to day design work I use Figma as a main software.
