About

I am Ksenia Butyrina, a Senior Product Designer and Design Educator with a passion for turning complex problems into elegant, user-centric solutions. With over 10 years of experience, I have spearheaded design projects that have not only won awards but also revolutionized user experience, leading to significant product successes. My expertise spans across UX/UI design, mobile app development, and digital strategy, making me a versatile asset in the tech industry. My role as a Design Lead at Livingston Research was a defining part of my career, where I launched and led the development of Nerdy-tutors, achieving a 4x increase in Lead2Customer conversion. This accomplishment is a testament to my ability to blend innovative design with strategic product management. Education is my second passion. As a Lecturer at Projector Online Institute, I have mentored over 300 students, guiding them through the nuances of mobile app design and helping them to achieve a completion rate of 77.6%. My courses are designed to be immersive and practical, ensuring that students can apply their learning in real-world scenarios. In addition to my professional pursuits, I am an avid learner and continuously seek to update my skills. Recent certifications in AI for Product Creation and Data-driven Product Management reflect my commitment to staying at the forefront of technology and design trends. My volunteer work as a mentor for Google for Startups and Projector Foundation allows me to give back to the community, sharing my knowledge and experiences to help others grow.
