Hello to whoever reads this!

I’m Ruslan "Barik" Valikhanov, a product designer, musician and traveller based in Berlin, Germany. I’m passionate about detailed simplicity in interfaces, solving problems, and understanding people.

My story

I am a design specialist who initially became obsessed with printing and illustrating magazines. After working in this field for quite a while, I spent the last years working with teams on improving design from a UX/UI perspective. At my last job, I was redesigning a medical platform for students and doctors, worked on core interactions and finally shipped the product with a group of engineers and designers.

My life-long passion is music, where I found myself playing drums and synthesizing my own noises. I also make photos of objects and draw them as a hobby. 

Don’t hesitate to drop me a line - so we can walk around Berlin, play ping-pong or even work together.
