About me.

My background, what inspires me and the tools I work with every day.


Introduction

Who am I?

I’m Gaya Medjedoub, with a Master’s degree in Software Engineering, and I’ve been a developer since I was little.

I’ve worked more than 5 years as a freelancer in user experience design: UX, UI and development. I’ve also collaborated with startups.

Today, I offer to put this experience at your service: support from the idea all the way to production.

Two hats, one profile.

I design the product and build it, with no middleman.

  • Full-stack developer

    React interfaces, APIs and databases: I build the product end to end.

    Research, flows, mockups and design system: I design the user experience before coding.

Reading

I read books, sometimes.
