I’m Gorjan, a UX/UI designer from Skopje, North Macedonia, with close to 7 years of experience in the digital product design industry, working in agency and startup environments.

I’ve merged my appetite for art and drawing with my curiousity for how humans interact with evolving technologies, and developed an interest in how my work can connect, inspire and improve quality of life. After getting my BSc in Design, I've been mostly working in the EdTech sector - crafting experiences and interfaces that enable gamified learning and critical knowledge retention in education and healthcare. I have only tapped the potential of what digital design can do to drive positive social impact, and I am excited to explore that further and dive deep in accessible, inclusive and participatory design through the Master’s programme - Response_Able Futures. I believe we as designers can play an important and transformative role in effectuating a more humane future, carrying responsibility and producing joy along the way.

Outside of my career, whenever I get the chance, I love being close to a body of water (rivers, lakes, the sea), as it provides me clarity, peace and reflection. I enjoy capturing life in my sketchbook, as well as reading a good novel, amateurly playing the guitar and spending quality time with friends and family. Thrilled to be a part of the first ResFut cohort!
