About
Crayola Beginnings 🖍️
I was the kid who couldn’t resist a blank canvas—whether it was the walls or my parents’ furniture.
So, it’s no surprise that creating is at the heart of what I do. From perfecting the smallest details in icon sets to crafting thorough user flows and cohesive design systems, I bring an eye for artistry and excellence to everything I create.
Madzia is hyper-attentive to detail. I really like the way you work! Your designs are always so thorough and easy to understand, and you are always so fast to adapt to last minute changes or requests.
— Vincent Géraud, Software Developer
Madzia’s talent cannot be stopped. You’re a source of inspiration to me and your talent as a designer is so unique.

Design with Heart 💕
I’m endlessly fascinated by how people feel and interact with the world, a curiosity that led me to study psychology and social work (along with fine arts!) at university.
Today, I apply that human-centered approach to design, blending thoughtful solutions with a desire to improve customer experiences. I advocate for research, proactively seeking out user feedback and data to inform decisions.
Madzia leads by example. Everything from the team activities you facilitate and your book/movie recommendations, to your really well-thought-out workshops, the polish you bring to every aspect of your work, and your level of engagement with the problem when giving feedback – it's all a real treat every time! You're a real MVP!

Madzia is a humble superstar. Thank you for paving the way with internal research, bringing others along with you to spread the knowledge, and now helping enable even more research.

Always Learning, Always Thinking 💭
I’m always collecting new hobbies, sharing random facts, and picking up new skills (latest skill: natural dyeing). My love for learning and self-teaching led me to product design. I first taught myself graphic design and web development—skills that ultimately paved the way for my career in tech.
That drive to learn continues to shape me today. I approach my work with curiosity, asking insightful questions, investigating problems, and uncovering issues others might miss. I thrive on tackling complex challenges, and no problem is too intricate to solve!
Madzia teaches me on the daily. You’re always the first one to speak up, flag workflow issues, challenge assumptions, and advocate for our users… I look forward to learning from you on the daily.

Madzia is a quiet force. No challenge is too complicated for you. You bring your calm energy and creativity to every project, and know how to harness the collective brain!
