INTRO
Iβm Dasha, a designer and developer passionate about thoughtful design, clean code, and helping ideas come to life online.
Full Project CycleIβve worked on multiple projects from start to finish β designing in Figma and building with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and WordPress. One of my highlights: I was the designer and a speaker at Googleβs Good Dev Fest Windsor, where I shared tips on using Figma for developers.
"From Figma to code β pixel by pixel, design should stay beautiful."
WORK
UX/UI Β· Figma Β· GitHub Pages (in progress)
I started this website by working closely with the founder and strategist behind The Lancer Method to understand her goals, audience, and content. From there, I mapped out the full user flow in FigJam, designed detailed wireframes, and created a complete UI in Figma. After finalizing the design, I built a fully responsive front-end using HTML, CSS, and Bootstrap. I also published a live LinkBio preview on GitHub Pages. WordPress integration is currently in progress. This project showcases my ability to lead the UX/UI process from concept to code.
Front-End Development
I designed and developed the entire website for Google DevFest Windsor 2024 completely on my own β from UX research and rapid UI prototyping in Figma to full front-end development and responsive layout β all under a tight deadline. My team supported only with Google Cloud deployment. I was also a speaker and led a design session at the event. The 2025 version is now in progress. Our team and my work were featured in the Windsor Star.
UX/UI Β· Figma
ServiceScout is a UX/UI case study for a local service booking platform. I designed this project entirely in Figma, focusing on user flows, visual hierarchy, and a clean layout that simplifies service discovery and booking. The goal was to make the experience seamless for both users and service providers. The final prototype includes responsive layouts, component library, and multiple page views.
UX/UI Β· Figma Β· GitHub Pages (in progress)
AutoMap is a modern one-page website concept for a local car service business. I designed the full UX and UI in Figma β from wireframes and user flows to polished visuals β with a focus on usability, bold typography, and clear service presentation. Then I started front-end development using HTML, CSS, and Bootstrap. The GitHub Pages version is currently live (in progress), and WordPress integration is planned next.
HTML & CSS
This project showcases my ability to translate a Figma design into a fully responsive website β pixel-perfect and identical to the original layout. I also used Photoshop to create and edit visuals, including the main image on the homepage. I often shoot and edit custom photography for the websites I develop, combining design, code, and visuals in a complete creative process.
Java Β· GitHub
This was a team project at St. Clair College where I focused on designing intuitive UI layouts and learning how to bring them to life using Java. While collaborating with other developers, I challenged myself to translate my interface ideas into functional Java code β from basic structure to user interactions. It was a hands-on experience in bridging UX thinking with real back-end logic and working within a collaborative GitHub environment.
UX/UI Β· Figma
This wireframe project was created as part of early-stage collaboration with a client for a pie shop website. I conducted a short discovery session, defined key user needs, and built structured low-fidelity wireframes in Figma. The goal was to make it easy for future developers to understand the content hierarchy, layout logic, and navigation flow β helping the team move faster during the UI and coding phases.
UI Design Β· Figma, Ps, Lr
This vibrant UI concept brings a homemade pie shop to life. After completing the wireframes, I designed the full user interface in Figma β focusing on warm colors, playful typography, and engaging layout. I also used Photoshop to create and retouch custom images for a more authentic visual identity. This project showcases my ability to move from UX structure to polished visual storytelling. The design was later handed off to a team of developers from St. Clair College for implementation.
UX/UI Β· Figma
This was a large-scale UX/UI project for a car service platform, where I worked as the Product Designer. I was responsible for designing user flows, wireframes, and a clean, intuitive UI that simplifies complex service interactions. My focus was on clarity, accessibility, and scalability β ensuring the design could evolve with future features. The project included multiple screens, responsive layouts, and a strong brand identity built in Figma.
INSIGHTS
My honest take on design, code, and the creative process β no fluff.
No builders, no shortcuts β just clean code and pixel-perfect design from Figma. I built my own Link in Bio with HTML/CSS/JS, hosted on GitHub with a custom domain. For my client, I recreated it in WordPress with ACF β fully editable and on-brand. Not just links β a branded experience, online and in print.
