I love to travel, and when I can mix business trips with pleasure, it’s the best combination ever. Attending a conference can be the perfect way to improve professionally and escape a little bit from the everyday routine.

In December 2016 we kicked off a New Years portfolio challenge for our community. We partnered up with .design, and gave away more than 500 free .design domain names to Hacking UI readers.

The brief was simply to do a portfolio re-design, while keeping it simple and focusing on presenting the work in a proper way.

Whether you’re a designer, developer, or a product manager- we all seem to share the same perception of how the user experience starts and where it ends- on a screen. However, in reality, our experience as users begins quite a few steps before we physically interact with a digital product, and it ends a few steps after we were done interacting with that product.
