About Me – Sanja Benčić

Sanja Bencic hi there

Who am I?

I’m a multidisciplinary designer and content strategist with a strong focus on UX/UI, dedicated to creating intuitive, accessible, and visually engaging digital experiences. Based in Croatia, my background spans over a decade in design, education, and cultural sector, giving me a unique, user-centered perspective that blends creativity with strategy.

I hold a Master’s degree in Content Strategy from FH Joanneum in Graz (AT) and a Master of Arts in Fine Arts from the Academy of Applied Arts in Rijeka (HR). I’ve also specialized in Design Systems at the Academy of Fine Arts in Verona (IT). My professional journey includes hands-on roles in UX/UI design, and visual design—both in remote international teams and local institutions.

In every project, I aim to balance functional clarity with aesthetic simplicity. I’m experienced in tools like Figma and Adobe Creative Suite. Whether designing interfaces, systems, or strategies, I’m passionate about shaping meaningful digital experiences that truly serve people.

Outside of work, I find inspiration in nature, art, and travel. I’m currently based in Croatia and open to remote opportunities.

Other skills

Over the past ten years, I’ve held design-focused roles across various institutions and companies, with a strong emphasis on marketing, digital, and graphic design. Earlier in my career, during my studies, some of my projects were more oriented toward product and systems design.

This diverse experience has enabled me to develop expertise across multiple areas of design and build a broad, complementary skill set that I now apply in my UX/UI role.
