Denis Orelsky

I'm a professional with 4 years of experience in the software development sector. For some time my activity was mainly concentrated on marketing, business development, and management but I continue to explore new directions and master new skills. Currently, I study User Experience research/design. Recently I finished the following courses and put this knowledge into practice on part-time projects:

• Udemy - the Ultimate guide to usability and UX by David Travis

• Skillshare - Mastering Microcopy by Jack Zerby

• Skillshare - Smart responsive UX design by Vitaly Friedman

• Skillshare - Conducting Smart User Research by Janelle Estes

• Skillshare - Learn UX from a UX instructor by Aaron Lawrence

I'm a highly charismatic person with strong skills in Communication, Public speaking, Negotiations and Customer Support. My abilities include problem-solving and troubleshooting, analytical/critical thinking and decision making.

I enjoy coming up with digital product concepts which can evolve into fully functioning Startups. My approach is focused on problems and needs that get transformed into solutions and possibilities to experience certain aspects of real life in a new way.

As for a detail-oriented person, I tend to spend plenty of time on preliminary stages like research and analysis to come up with data-based insights that serve as a solid foundation for the development of any product. Also, I'm capable of working according to existing requirements and introduce new ideas that can contribute to customers' success.

My previous professional experiences included traveling and interacting with people from different countries which I enjoy. My future role should partially involve similar activities and provide a precise direction that will guarantee self-development and acquisition of new skills.

I play guitar, work out and study languages when I have free time. I speak English (Advanced), French (Intermediate), Russian (Native), Ukrainian (Native). For some time I lived in the United States so my pronunciation sounds native.

I possess a good sense of humor and qualities of a leader who performs his duties responsibly and proves to be a reliable team player
