about

Born in Tbilisi, Georgia 1998, I found myself hooked on design while entering the labor market at the age of 15. I started as a front-end developer and figured out my passion soon enough. You could say I became the person I wanted to be when I grew up. In no time, I was working as a graphic designer for small businesses, before moving to Leavingstone, where in addition to UI/UX Design, I spent most of the time explaining what I did for a living to my family. Right about the time, when my family understood (most part) my job description, I started winning awards and making them proud at Redberry. Having spent almost 2 years at digital agencies, I decided to tackle bigger issues, i.e. making post-Soviet folks trust technology. For that reason, I joined TBC Bank’s innovation team, where we created a fully digital bank Space. Having peaked too soon, I decided to relocate to Barcelona and pursue a master's at Harbour Space University I genuinely enjoyed my time there: pulling all-nighters, while the whole city was out partying. For the greater good, I even found time to work for OneRagtime. a platform helping start-ups connect with VCs and survive in this uncertain economy. Right after graduation, I found myself packing again and moving to Amsterdam, where I joined Stack. At Stack, we are building a revolutionary browser and of course, making the world a better place
