Location: Greater Bend Area, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/zsolt

I live and breathe user-centric product design in all of its forms and thrive in an environment where there’s a constant need for creative problem solving.

I am:
- A designer who codes — i.e. I can create and translate product design systems, high fidelity mockups, and prototypes into deployable front-end code (JSX, React, ES6, Tailwind, etc). This allows me to better navigate design tasks within the limitations of development stacks
- Experienced working in a variety of business environments — from large to small teams, from Fortune 500 to boutique firms
- Actively taking part in the Maker movement — i.e. 3D modeling and printing, CNC fabrication, tool making, hardware hacking, electric transportation, microprocessor programming, music production, sound synthesis, sound design and everything in between
- A giant nerd
