Time to meet the Junior UX/UI designer at Lloyds digital, Ena!

Do you have any hobbies, go-to weekend activities, or long-term passion projects you’re working on?

My hobbies are fitness (gym), playing guitar&singing and mountain biking. My go-to weekend activities include mountain biking on Medvednica (Sljeme) with my boyfriend, sometimes hiking or just walking in nature. Any kind of outdoor and recreational activities are my go-to weekend activities.....

Before working at Lloyds digital, what was the most unusual or interesting job you’ve ever had?

The most unusual job I've ever had was working in a hotel primarily as a receptionist, but I also was a waitress and a cook at the same time. So, the guest would come to a hotel, I would make a check-in at the reception if he wants to drink coffee, I make him a coffee, if he wants to eat something, I prepare a meal (cook) and serve...It was 3 jobs in 1.

How has Lloyds digital helped you in your career development?

My current company helped me in my career development by giving me a chance to work with them. This is my very first job in this career and it means a lot to me. I have colleagues I can learn from and I'm grateful for that. I'm looking forward to gaining experience and learning even more, so I can provide as much value as I can as a designer in this company.

What's your favorite quote, or motto?

"You must expect great things of yourself before you can do them." - this quote helped me to understand that I have to believe in myself when I'm trying to achieve something I might think that I'm not able to achieve. It could be a fitness goal, financial goal, or job goal...It always pushed me forward and helped me to believe I can do something.

How do you define success in life?

My definition of success in life is, first of all having a loving partner and family. After that, having a job that you love and that provides a good work-life balance and having some kind of financial freedom so that you are able to experience life without limitations (because money is often a limitation to many things in life).

What did you want to be when growing up?

When I was a kid I wanted to be a teacher when I grow up. I was often playing school in my room where I'm a teacher. I was writing on the wooden door with chalk and pretending I have a class and that was also the way I was learning for my real classes - the subject we were learning in real class in school, I would "teach" my imaginary students later at home. 😂
