Hi there! My name is Marzena Książkiewicz and I'm a UX/UI designer and developer based in Helsinki, Finland.
Web standards, usability and accessibility are close to my heart.
My CV can be found on LinkedIn. PM me on Twitter, if you want to chat about all things web, or otherwise.
A professional with two decades of experience, I have worked in different roles in numerous web projects from regular business websites through e-learning, intranets, DAM systems, online shops and large information services. Some of them are ancient history now, having left no trace on the net, others continue their prolific life and new are coming. Currently, I'm working at Edita Publishing on developing a design system to power the company's online legal services.

Marzena is, above all, quick to learn new things. In my team she has done great job in web design and usability areas, and also in requirements writing and management. But she has also participated in testing, documentation, localization, etc., always flexibly willing to do what is needed. Last but not least I'd like to mention her contribution to improving team's working methods.Jari Eronen, Business Analyst / Project Manager at CGI
I had the privilege of working together with Marzena in the UX design team, Marzena was leading. Marzena has the ability to vision and visualize the core essence of complex new concepts. I would characterize Marzena as a mother-like leader, who genuinely cares about her team members. She effectively leads by example and without demanding.Tomi Kokkonen, Senior Interaction Designer at Idean
I have been working with Marzena on two projects which goal was to create web portal for our professional organization. Marzena is very professional, competent and creative in her work. She is very positive person and it is real pleasure to work with her.Agnieszka Nummi, QA Manager & IT Service Owner, Patenting Solutions at Nokia Technologies Finland Oy
Olemme työskennelleet Marzenan kanssa samassa tiimissä kahteen eri otteeseen, ensin vuosina 2004-2005 työskennellessäni WWW-ohjelmoijana ja tämän jälkeen vuosina 2010-2012 työskennellessäni projektipäällikkönä. Marzena on mainio tiimipelaaja ja sparrauskumppanina hän on omaa luokkaansa. Hän kuuntelee toista osapuolta ja osaa nostaa esiin epäselviä kohtia. Marzena ei päästä sparrauskumppaniaan helpolla vaan hakemalla hakee vastauksia ongelmakohtiin ja hän osaa myös esittää omia ratkaisuehdotuksiaan. Vaikka Marzena osaa olla tarvittaessa tiukka, on hänen kanssaan helppo tulla toimeen. Jos haette ongelmien ratkaisijaa, joka pystyy työskentelemään sekä itsenäisesti että tiimissä, suosittelen Marzenan puoleen kääntymistä.Sami Veikkolainen, Product owner at Fonecta Oy
I was Marzena's manager at Lingsoft, Inc. We worked together for 4 years on various projects which always required technical skills and often high linguistic awareness. I have known Marzena for over 10 years now, and have also been following her career since we both went our separate ways to other companies. Marzena is an exceptionally good and reliable employee with plenty of self-initiative and is always eager to learn new things. Leading Marzena is an easy task, as she loves to do her job to an excellent standard. She is especially good at anything that relates to the web, UIs, usability, or user requirements management. I can highly recommend Marzena for any specialist position where her knowledge and experience will benefit the role.
