Hello! 👋🏼
I’m Serhiy Holovashkin, also known as Siryi. I specialize in UX/UI, Growth design, and web development, integrating best practices in Marketing, Business Strategies, and Customer Experience into my work and personal projects.

What I Do
During the day, I’m an ordinary-unordinary designer. In the evenings, I teach UI/UX Design at ithillel school. At night, I transform into a full-stack programmer with a myriad of interests and projects. Occasionally, I mentor in design and web programming. Since 2016, I’ve been working with the US and European markets, diving into art and digital design since 2007.
