Hello.

привет.

안녕하세요!

My name is Maria Shuttleworth. I’m a 27-year old half British, half Russian design nerd living in London.

Armed with an MA in UX Design, I've spent the past five years in the design realm. By day, I'm creating end-to-end experiences for Kafka and data users in Conduktor. By night, I'm at my art workstation making jewelry or illustrating.

I'm especially interested in working storytelling into my design work, blending critical thinking & eye-catching visuals to create unforgettable experiences.

My most recent project has been working on Conduktors' new product Trust; their data quality hub. I have helped shape the direction of this product, both in design and strategy, collaborating with product managers, engineers, and co-founders.

Outside of Trust I have been responsible for introducing Alerting and Notifications, and am currently working on a navigation re-design. I also love nerding out on Design Systems so have been owning that in Figma.

This was part of a 6-week collaborative university project. I worked in a team to organise and design an information archive for the Hoffmann Centre. We used a combination of web design and AR to make an effective way to navigate through large amounts of information at once.
