Hey, I’m Tess Dziallo. My last name is pronounced with a hard “J”, like “JAH-low”, and is Polish for gun (but is technically spelled wrong with two “L”s instead of one, ahaha). I’m a self taught illustrator, passionate about UX, motion graphics, and storytelling. I love identifying and solving the root cause of problems, not just how the visible symptoms can be managed.

When I’m not researching or designing, the main things I like to do are upcycling old clothes, gardening, rewatching or binging shows (and by shows I mean strictly cartoons, anime, and true crime), reading manga (I’m a huge Berserk fanatic; please ask me about the latest chapter!), occasionally playing games, and balancing crafting hobbies like needle felting and embroidery.
