Designer & Developer craftingdigital experiences
Hey, I'm Ilona Rus! I build interfaces that blend beautiful design with solid code. My goal is to create experiences that look great, feel intuitive and actually work. When I'm not designing or coding you'll probably find me gaming or exploring VR worlds.
Creating Digital Magic
My journey in tech has taken me from software testing to front-end development and now to UX/UI design. This unique path across government, e-commerce, agencies and startups has given me a holistic perspective on building products. Understanding not just how things should look and work but how to ensure quality at every stage. I've also served as a Scrum Master, guiding teams through agile processes and fostering collaborative environments.
My focus is on creating accessible, inclusive interfaces backed by robust design systems. I believe the best products are built with both users and developers in mind just like a well-designed game that's enjoyable to play and built on solid code.
