I am a designer & strategist based out of the Bay Area. With a background supporting small organizations & startups, my work has extended to many disciplines within the design field—from conducting research & creating interfaces to developing design strategy. In my prior experience, I have built recognition of individual creative contributions within a collective agency, applied gamification to impact financial decision-making for college students & supported millennials’ creative endeavors, amplifying them beyond consumers but as co-creators. Previously at Aemass, I explored interaction, consumption & impact of emerging media—aiming to bring value & authenticity to the media we all consume in hopes of preserving identity, sharing culture, knowledge & the stories we create. My work includes but not limited to designing production tools & applications for holographic content as well as curating case studies & client project proposals for pop-up interactive experiences, augmented training sessions & remote data management access for startups & Fortune 500 subsidiary companies in the retail, medical, energy & entertainment sectors. As I continue my journey in the design space, I look to build & scale out visions for a more equitable future.

Product Innovator • Angel Investor
Toronto, ON, Canada
A product innovator and design strategist currently working on climate and sustainability. I'm obsessed with understanding how the 🌎 works, which defaults to relentless curiosity. I see a future that balances 3 pillars - people, planet, and profit. Sadly, the world is currently saturated with excess profit-only and shortsighted strategies that I'm dedicating myself to people-and-planet-first innovation. --- ✔ On a macro level, I ask questions like how might we create a harmonious systemic balance between humans and technology, while cultivating sustainable growth? ✔ On a granular level, I use tools like human-centred design, behavioural economics, and tech to deliver change. ❤ ideas around deploying empathy at scale --- I dream of a world where circular economy, sustainable design, and conscious decision-making is no longer celebrated, but rather, a social norm.

My name is Victoria. I'm originally from Eastern Siberia and I moves to the US 6 years ago. My professional background is diverse including event organizing, litigation support, customer operations and I had a small business back in Russia. I'm excited to meet y'all. I have 3 cats and 1 daughter. I'm down for just about anything outdoors, but the best days are spent camping in the wilderness, ideally with friends and a bottle of Pinot.

Efficient system integration and sustainable engineering are my career passions. I pride myself on a diversity of interests and an insatiable hunger for knowledge. I strive to complement my technical expertise with communication savvy, creativity, and "big-picture" perspective in order to design systems that embody these qualities.
