Slava Fedosenko.

"Every once in a while, we meet young talented people that we wish we could have ten more of them. Slava is on that list.

While Slava has all of the skills that you want in a web design team leader, he brings the vital soft skills that successful teams need. Slava is driven, empathetic, caring, intentional, takes initiative, has great instincts and I could go on.

If you are considering hiring Slava as a freelancer or a full-time employee, feel free to message me to learn more about my experience working with him."

"Slava is a fantastic designer, a skillful manager, and a very generous and kind colleague. I greatly enjoyed working with Slava at Mapbox, both on individual webpage design projects and as a manager focused on the well-being of his colleagues and the whole company. I think Slava deserves much of the credit for the transformation of Mapbox's website into the beautiful, modern site it is today - and I know he will continue to build excellent projects wherever he goes."

"Fantastic web design manager. In fact, when he decided to go freelance (because someone THAT talented, THAT creative, THAT skilled cannot be held down with corporate bureaucracy), I begged him to stay. It is rare to find a web design manager that combines design sense AND operational discipline as beautifully as Slava does. And his team loved working for him, so there's also that."

"Slava helped us redesign and relaunch our website. Slava put his all into working with us on a design concept, creatively explored options based on our brand, and then implemented fast and effectively. Slava is highly iterative and collaborative, and wisely knows how to both bring his experience to the table as well as meet his clients where they are. Slava's communication is excellent -- making sure we had a clear picture on how things were progressing, and explicitly asking for input when he had dependencies on our decisions. He made sure we were empowered to take what he built and use what he developed as a living, growing site."

"Our project faced several challenges such as an outdated design, a confusing user experience, inconsistent user flow and accessibility. Slava helped us among others with building a foundation for an intuitive user flow, created wireframes and proposing layout solutions for user interface design implementation. Slava is highly responsive to messages, promptly addressing issues by not only resolving them but also providing explanations for his choices and the reasons behind certain issues. Even after the project’s completion, he remained available to assist with any lingering questions we had."
