Hi there, this is Elen
I’m a UX/UI designer based in Los Angeles. I care about clarity, empathy, and those small details that make a big difference.
I tend to overthink, but in design that’s a strength. It makes me catch the little things that others might miss.
Before design, I worked as a translator. That background taught me to listen carefully, understand different perspectives, and communicate with clarity.

My design values
Empathy first
I design with people in mind, making sure their needs and feelings shape the solutions.
Details matter
I notice the small things like typography, spacing, and accessibility because they make the whole experience feel right.
Clarity over clutter
I believe design should feel simple and natural, guiding users without confusion or clutter.

Beyond design
When I’m not designing, you’ll probably find me reading on my Kindle, baking sourdough or trying new recipes, working out at the gym or boxing, going on hikes, or relaxing with a TV show.
