The Story So Far

Hi 👋🏼 I'm Yevheniia Tsapkova

I’m a Product Designer focused on making complex products simple and clear to use.

With a technical background and a passion for intuitive user experiences, I work across product strategy, research, and polished UI.

Right now, I’m part of the Allegro team, Poland’s biggest e-commerce platform, contributing to UX direction and design easier shopping journeys.

Outside of tech, I explore form and texture through ceramics — a hands-on balance to my screen-based work.
