What I Bring to the Table
Solid Leadership Experience:
Over two decades in design, including 12 years in leadership roles. Nine of those in fast-paced, high-pressure agency environments.
Diverse Project Portfolio:
400+ projects delivered across industries—from top corporations to dynamic startups, covering both product and communication design.
Strategic Business Insight:
Beyond client work, I've co-founded two startups. This gives me deep understanding of founder challenges and strategic business needs.
I have worked side by side with Kanstatsin for several years, and during this time, I have become convinced that he is not only a competent manager and an experienced specialist but also a person who is always looking for new, effective solutions. He has strategic thinking and is able to assess tasks soberly and find optimal ways of their realization.
