My name is Marija Staneviciute, and I am a dedicated UX designer driven by a passion for fostering community connections and creating impactful, inclusive, and accessible solutions that prioritise empathy at their core.

I am currently a contract UX designer at Element 78, with 2.5 years of agency experience in digital product design. With over 10 years in Graphic Design and Illustration, I combine storytelling, empathy, and problem-solving to create engaging and intuitive experiences.

I hold a bachelor’s degree in Illustration and professional UX qualifications, and I’ve applied design thinking across industries, including education, healthcare, and charity, to deliver impactful results. Beyond design, I have facilitated workshops and conducted research to drive inclusive and sustainable solutions that connect communities and deliver lasting value.

Outside of UX, I am passionate about printmaking—an iterative, problem-solving process that strengthens my creativity and ability to tackle design challenges from a fresh perspective.
