About me

I am Alexandra, a self-taught product designer and front-end developer.

My interest in web design sparked in my teenage years, when I started creating websites related to my favourite games and activities.

In 2014, I moved to Bordeaux for my studies, pursuing a two-year degree in technology (DUT MMI), during which I collaborated on various projects with my classmates.

A noteworthy project was Prestapic, a pioneering service similar to Unsplash, addressing the difficulty of finding royalty-free images for design purposes.

At the same time we worked on Nameless, an anonymous chat platform that emerged from one of our university's hackathon. We later developed a mobile version in which users could specify their location radius to find conversation partners.

In 2016, I co-founded TidyCards with a classmate, an app to organise and format lists of links. Although many of my earlier projects are now discontinued, I keep refining and polishing this one on my spare time while delving into back-end development.

In October 2016 I joined Schoolab, a mission-driven company that helps its partners and clients to develop their activities in ways that promote diversity and positive social and environmental outcomes.

My role within the product team has evolved over the years at Schoolab. Initially a UI designer and front-end developer I became a product designer and accessibility referent within the SL Group.

Clients I worked with

What is my speciality?

With my experience accumulated over years on white label SaaS products and my front-end knowledge, I can offer you solutions that are adapted to your objectives and technical constraints.

I specialise in the creation and implementation of design systems, components and in the advanced prototyping of your products, to use them in user tests and interviews.

I pay particular attention to the accessibility and inclusion of the products I work on, as well as the interaction elements.

Things I enjoy doing in my free time

My work experience

My passion for product design and front-end development started in my teenage years, tinkering with websites for my favorite games and activities. This early fascination led me to pursue a technology degree and eventually embark on a fulfilling career crafting user-centered digital experiences.

My professional journey has been one of continuous learning and exciting challenges, primarily centered at Schoolab, a global innovation studio and incubator.

My roles at Schoolab

My passion for design extends beyond my work at Schoolab. In 2016, I co-founded TidyCards, a web app that helps users organize and share links effortlessly. This ongoing project allows me to explore my entrepreneurial spirit and contribute a valuable tool to the digital landscape.

Since 2012, I've also been offering freelance product design services, partnering with clients to bring their product to life. This experience allows me to engage with diverse projects and continually expand my creative skillset.

My early career was shaped by valuable internships at Studio Silver Arrow in 2016 and NEO-SOFT Services in 2015, where I gained foundational experience in UI/UX design, front-end development, and PHP development.
