Hi, I’m Anastasia (Nastia), a Senior Product Designer with 5 years of experience bringing design solutions to life. I recently redesigned the events management system for Google.
Before that, I had the opportunity to work on a project management tool for Apple, design solutions for beginner runners at Pluot (eCommerce), and create solutions for Twitch Prime users (gaming).
Working with big tech companies like Google and Apple has taught me the importance of effective communication and thinking long-term, designing meaningful solutions for complex problems, and creating visions for the future, all while being mindful of business goals and engineering constraints.
I discovered my passion for design during my physical therapy internship at Foothill College when I was creating rehabilitation plans for college athletes. Working with them, I realized the importance of empathy and how it can help create meaningful, unique experiences with many limitations in mind.

I have a huge interest in health and longevity, along with my passion for design. I firmly believe that design can be used to make technology easier to use and also to make life simpler and more enjoyable. My ultimate goal is to use my design knowledge to impact people's lives and help them live healthier and more fulfilling lives.

"Anastasia is a quick learner, has a great attitude, and is a calming presence on the team. She is smart, comes to the table with great recommendations, and works to provide the best solution for the end user and the business. I think she is on the right track to take on more challenging tasks and roles, and I know she will grow into a strong design lead.” - Samuel Davis, Design Lead
