What people say about my work
Many designers don't understand the interaction aspect as well as Alexander did. For the most time of my career I haven't had such a workflow with designers.
Leon / CommitClub
When I'm hired by founders, they receive a bundle of my "features": workbooks of progress, team management, creative direction, and zoom jokes.
Alexander's collaborative and direct leadership style drive focus on what matters, especially in fast-paced and early stage environments. Building alongside Alex is a joy.
Kelly McEttrick, Co-Founder at Decipad
Alexander is a highly empathetic and impactful product thinker. He pushes what’s best for the user, his process cuts through ambiguity, and his designs are highly effective.
Renato Valdés Olmos, Head of Design at Grammarly
Alex is one of the most professional and talented designers I've ever known. His communication skills and out of the box thinking inspire the team to achieve higher results together.
Eugene Plokhoj, Head of Product at Readdle
What people say about my management
I build creative teams to create world-class product and design. I made dozens of great hires, who delivered the project to 100% and stayed within their teams for years.
Alexander manages with multidisciplinary understanding of all layers such as business, product, marketing, UI, code, metrics — rare and nuanced approach that helps to push boundaries in modern tech products.
Stan, Product
Alexander has built clear, transparent process compared to all other jobs I had. I had a space for freedom, opportunities, creativity, and rare trust on multiple projects that we finished together.
Kolom, Motion Design at Super Clear
The creative process by Alexander made him the best design manager I ever worked with and his creative direction is unique. He rapidly gets all aspects and helps you exceed your own expectations.
Dmytro, Concept Design at Super Clear
I was hired by Alexander and no one came close to his level of empathy, clarity and support. I could always rely on his judgement and make sure I was safe making bold decisions and get his support.

Visual Design
I'm very practical designer. I enjoy tackling the details, spend an hour on a hover state, manipulate gradients at least 20 times before approving them.
This is a superpower I have to use to override all ugliness in the world.
