Nadia Udalova
Business growth hacking with help of design
I am User Experience Strategist, helping companies build & optimise design teams.
Guiding organisations on how to pursue the success of leading tech companies like Apple, Google, Airbnb and Amazon by turning to design and better connecting with customers.
My approach
Leadership in Tech communities
I believe in the transformational power of communities to entitle people, benefit society and inspire positive change. Here I am finding a connection to the pulse of what’s happening in the field, meeting new people, sharing my voice and getting advice.
“Design is a key differentiator in driving business success and customer engagement. Design-driven companies consistently outperformed the S&P Index by 219% over a decade (2004-2014)."

What do people say about me?
Martin van Vliet
VP of Product Development @StackState
As our first UX designer at the time, Nadia came in to an engineering organisation where focus on design was minimal. Through her experience as well as her enthusiasm, she managed to instil a sense of design in the teams she interacted with. Whether it was graphical design, running workshops to identify and validate customer needs or working directly with engineers implementing functionality.
