Building a strong base

Cynthia and Sergii explain that starting on the same page is key to success when approaching a new feature or project.

Working independently while staying together

A key part of working effectively as a team, especially while remote, is getting feedback and moving forward together. Through these feedback loops, Cynthia iterates copy, and Sergii iterates designs as they go. This way, they can identify opportunities as they arise and push for decisions while keeping the team together and informed.

Including the greater team

Their core UX principle is: Be empathetic. To our company, this means connecting with how users think and feel by considering their diversity and perspectives. This inclusive mindset helps grow our audience in a diverse range of communities.
