If I can define Stefan like I define Design in 3 words, it will be: meaningful, useful & delightful. Is a fountain of ideas and creative thinker who can think and implement quickly, laterally, independently or collaboratively. If changing the world just comes with the job description, I definitely recommend Stefan.
Ovidiu Olaru
Owner, NoCodeMachine
It’s a true pleasure to work with Stefan, it’s a higher pleasure to endorse him as a professional, as a trained, experienced UI designer. It’s really hard these days to find designers (and people, and friends) like Stefan: curious, dedicated, with so much knowledge on almost everything related to UI, UX and design as a modern discipline. I always admired his trained eye, his almost maniacal appetite for quality and well executed design.
Mircea Dragoi
Artist/Illustrator, Lateral
Stefan's work shows an excellent blend between innovation, user experience and aesthetics: clean and simple, yet beautiful, UIs; flawless user experience while not straying from the platform's paradigms; innovating, yet with a touch of familiarity - all these traits are what makes Stefan's contribution so unique and hugely important.
Radu Lucaciu
Director Data, Brillio
Stefan is an incredibly talented UI/UX designer and a pleasure to work with. He has a great eye for detail and a real knack for balancing aesthetics with usability, delivering under tight deadlines. Beyond his design skills, he knows how to bring out the best in his team, inspiring them to push creative boundaries. I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with him, and I can say he’s one of the most skilled designers I’ve worked with.
Marc Abrudat
CTO, Lupl
Stefan is one of the most talented and versatile designers I’ve had the chance to work with. No matter how complex or uncertain the task, he always found a way to deliver amazing results and make clients happy—a huge asset in consulting.
Alex Zapadenko
Design Director, Monks
I rely on Stefan's creativity, experience, professionalism, and keen design and user research skills to lead the design efforts on our product strategy teams helping clients identify the right products and who to build them for. His skills and efficiency are beyond compare and if I had the chance I'd hire him or work with him on any project at any company. He has deep understanding across design disciplines, UX/UI, Interaction, Visual, and more; not to mention he is broad in understanding technology and product/business as well.
Veronica Atchley
Director of Product, Monks
Stefan’s passion for excellence is truly inspiring. A self-professed admirer of Steve Jobs and Jony Ive, he shares their obsession with creating user-centric, high-quality products that delight and engage. His dedication and meticulous attention to detail elevate every project he touches.
Chip Habuc
CTO, Maponomy
Stefan is awesome to work with. He generates high-quality designs quickly and with a very pragmatic approach, balancing user needs with Engineering practicalities. He worked on some really exciting and complex features with us. Stakeholders and Engineers alike have really enjoyed working with him."
Matt Polins
Director of Product, Lupl
Stefan is an extraordinary designer. I had the opportunity to work with him on multiple projects, and see how he transforms product ideas intro beautiful interfaces and stunning user experiences.
Tamas Pap
CTO, Foodstyles
Stefan is the most hardcore UX strategist and designer I've worked with. He can easily translate vague concepts and ideas into fully fleshed out user journeys and beautiful screens faster than teams can digest them. Highly recommended to work with him on ideation, strategy, discovery, prototyping, and leading other designers!
