I’m Marija Staneviciute, a UX designer driven by a passion for creating intuitive, inclusive, and accessible digital solutions that put empathy at the centre. I currently work as a contract UX designer at Element78, with 3 years of agency experience in digital product design.

With over 10 years of background in Graphic Design and Illustration, I combine storytelling, empathy, and problem-solving to craft engaging user experiences. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Illustration and professional UX qualifications, and I’ve applied design thinking across sectors, including education, healthcare, service design, and non-profits, to deliver impactful results. Alongside design, I’ve facilitated workshops and conducted research to support inclusive, sustainable solutions that connect communities and create long-term value.

Outside of UX, I’m passionate about traditional printmaking – from linocut to etching. This hands-on practice fuels my creativity and strengthens my iterative, problem-solving mindset, helping me approach design challenges from fresh perspectives.
