Hi, nice to meet you!

I'm Julia Schwaminger

I'm an enthusiastic UX/UI Designer based in Amsterdam.
My journey through the world of design has been dynamic and diverse, shaping me into a well-rounded creative professional.

My creative journey began at the age of 15 when I realized my future was destined for the world of design. It all started during my childhood at an art school, eventually leading me to pursue a master's degree in environmental design, where I honed my skills in crafting functional and harmonious spaces.

As I ventured into the professional world, I embraced a variety of roles that enriched my skill set. I began as a freelance interior designer, meticulously bringing public and private spaces to life through realistic 3D projects. Later, in a graphic design role, I discovered the profound impact design can have on sales and brand transformation, refining my ability to create visually captivating designs that deeply resonate with people.

My journey eventually brought me to CareerFoundry's UX Design Certification program, where I immersed myself in user-centric methodologies. Over six immersive months, I mastered concepts such as user personas, wireframing, prototyping, usability testing, and design documentation.

For the past 1.5 years, I've worked as a UX/UI Designer at Magic Playbox, a New York-based agency that specializes in mobile applications with augmented reality. In this role, I've had the privilege of contributing to exciting projects that directly impact the user experience.

Beyond design, you'll find me alternating between two modes – seeking serenity through oil painting and drawing, and gaining energy from dance classes.
I consistently draw inspiration from the world around me, and my passion for creation and observation propels me forward in my design journey.

Proficient in English, German, and Russian, I seamlessly communicate and collaborate within global teams, infusing projects with diverse perspectives.

With a profound passion for design, observation, and endless curiosity, my journey continues as I seek to create designs that captivate and resonate with users.
