Hi! I am Dima. This is my intro website where you can find all relevant information about me.

🌰 In a nutshell: I have 10+ years of experience to deliver IT industry-leading SaaS products, services, mobile apps and great UX.

🧠 Passionate for design, skilled in product management, agile methodologies, UX/UI enhancements, cross-functional and multidisciplinary team leadership and development for digital products.

💪 One of my strongest suits is meticulousness, and as a consequence, as clichéd as it sounds, attention to detail.
