About UltraBasics
I’m a UX/UI designer with 10+ years of industry experience and over 5 years of mentoring students and beginners in design and Figma, helping them build strong foundations through hands-on learning and real-world guidance. I genuinely love teaching and guiding aspiring designers—I enjoy breaking down complex concepts into simple, practical lessons. Alongside design skills, I also help with building your portfolio, crafting a strong CV, and preparing for design roles so you’re confident and job-ready.
