Yan Zaretsky

I design projects at all stages: developing a brief with the client, conceptual design, layout, and production supervision.

I work systematically, using design as a method for solving business problems: defining business needs, establishing design evaluation criteria, and iterating until the goals are achieved. I immerse myself in the objectives and specifics of each project, paying attention to detail, and holding myself accountable for the results.

I manage design teams. I help designers collaborate with each other and with other departments. I establish workflows and methodologies based on the company's needs and the project's maturity. I train, mentor, and inspire designers.

I manage the project's workflow. I launch and fine-tune the DASH1 system design. I ensure a controlled process and results across three stages: operational, tactical, and strategic.

For businesses: auditing the current state of design, mapping out project development, reviewing the design department's principles and methodology. Developing design evaluation criteria and effective interactions between the design and business teams. Professional development and lectures for the design team.

For designers and managers: mentoring, portfolio reviews, project audits, career path adjustments, identifying growth opportunities, consultations on working in a team or individually, or freelancing.
