About me

Bridget PivacSelf-portrait 2009

I am a dual Swedish and New Zealand citizen with 13 years working experience in Sweden.

I have an extensive range of user experience skills and knowledge of a wide variety of design software from Figma, Adobe suite to Blender and development such as Unreal and Unity. And of course, the usual collaboration tools such as Miro, Github, Jira etc.

I enjoy mentoring and have done so many times in a role and also remotely through alumni associations. For fun, I enjoy painting, illustration & character design in Procreate.
