Vlad was a standout mentor and an absolute fountain of knowledge regarding everything UX/UI related!

Vlad mentored me through my 6 months of full-time study at designlab. I had the pleasure of meeting with Vlad twice a week to go over what I had completed since our last meeting.

Vlad was never afraid to critique, but was always gracious with his approach. This gave me the foundation to really improve. He always met me with enthusiasm and pession, while still being grrounded in the rules of product design.

[...] This motivated me to do the best I could! It was evident that as Vlad spoke and graded my work, he wanted me to succeed; I could tell he was investing in me. That’s the most any student could ask for!

Vlad was my tutor for my UIUX boot camp course. He is professional, knowledgeable, and also personable to work with. I enjoyed my course time with him, and I was also thankful for his mentorship that I landed a UX job soon after graduation. I would recommend anyone to work with him!

Vlad was an incredible mentor! So attentive, communicative and passionate about teaching design. He is really good at coming to me with actionable advice and feedback on my projects. Go Vlad!

Vlad was my UX/UI design mentor at Springboard. He taught me for over a year and he is an excellent mentor! His guidance and mastery of design made my education at Springboard worthy and so valuable.

He is patient, gives very clear feedback, and is genuinely interested and supportive of his students. In my capacity to promote Vlad's skills, I highly recommend Vlad as a UX/UI designer and as a teacher.

I had the absolute pleasure of getting to be mentored by Vlad at DesignLab. He is an incredible mentor and the sole reason I had such a positive experience throughout the bootcamp. He continued to push me throughout our time together and gave me knowledge needed to make it in a real design position.

His knowledge of UX/UI design as well as coding continued to impress me and I walked away from each session learning something new. I am beyond grateful to him for making me the strong designer I am today.

Immediately after finishing my studies at the University of New Hampshire Springboard Program, I landed the exact UX Product Design position I had been searching for.

Vlad had encouraged me to dive deeper into the UXR and relish the Presentations portions of my work, which I can get pretty passionate about. Vlad’s clear expertise and practical advice helped me zero into what quickly became my future career.

Vlad was my mentor through the Springboard UX/UI Design Bootcamp. He was incredibly patient and provided invaluable feedback and guidance so that I could complete the Bootcamp successfully.

I appreciated that rather than feeding me the answers, he would direct me to the resources I needed to answer my questions. He always gave constructive criticism in a compassionate way and I felt that he genuinely wanted me to succeed in the program. Thank you Vlad for your guidance through my journey into the UX/UI Design world!

Vlad was a wonderful mentor - always honest and straightforward. I appreciated his direct feedback and his knowledge of not only the design world but also his depth of understanding when it came to development. But my favourite thing about him is his passion for UX.
