Who I am
I'm Katalin Kiss from Szombathely, Hungary. As a UX+UI designer, my focus is on clarity, performance and measurable results.
I'm guided by a simple belief: your product is your best marketing tool. When people are satisfied, they don't just stay—they become loyal fans who value your brand. Great experiences speak for themselves, long before any campaign does.
Look, I'm not a magician. But I do have a proven process. It all begins with understanding of the users behind the screens: what motivates them, what they feel and what they need. I then combine that empathy with creativity and strategy, translating insights into growth.
Over the years, I had opportunities to work in various industries both in-house and as a contractor from big firms to small agencies. I partner with companies and owners who believe a great user experience is the best business investment.
Clients and companies value my flexibility, big-picture thinking and reliability in deadlines.
If you're ready to build a product people love and a business that grows from it, then we share the same goal.
