Slovakia
With a background in UX design and fact-checking, I bring a unique blend of creativity, analytical thinking, and integrity to every project. Over the years, I’ve successfully designed, created, and managed web portfolios for a wide range of clients, balancing aesthetic quality with usability and clear communication. I'm passionate about creating solutions rooted in user research, verified data, and real-world context. Design is not just a creative activity, but also a way to bring clarity, promote understanding, and solve problems that matter. Truth matters. To users, to society, and to me. I aim to contribute to meaningful projects that have a positive impact on people’s lives and support a more informed, inclusive, and honest world, whether I’m designing a digital product or verifying claims in public discourse. I’m driven by curiosity and a strong desire to contribute to projects that make a real difference in people’s lives. My goal is to support organizations and causes that value transparency, empathy, and long-term impact.
As a fact-checker at Demagog.sk, a project of the Slovak Governance Institute, I contribute to verifying false information and assessing the factual accuracy of statements made by politicians and other publicly active individuals. My role involves analyzing public speeches, debates, and media content to ensure accountability in public discourse. I research credible sources, evaluate data, and present findings in a clear and unbiased manner.
