Krispin Stock

UX & UI designer

Zagreb, Croatia
I am a UX & UI designer with main focus on creating digital products that bridge business & users’ needs.

Although I‘ve come from an art background, 10+ years of experience in graphic design and 7+ in digital world taught me to value data over (gut) feelings.

As a designer I have worked in almost any environment, from small design studio, to large agencies and remote startup. I was part of the both waterfall & agile dev teams, organised and lead small design teams & worked closely with sales departments.

All that experiences enabled me to look at the challenges and issues from various angles, visuals being just one of them.
