Not sure if you're still reading this, but feel free to hit me up for UI work. I believe my designs fit what you're looking for.

Just want to point out that your demo is broken and/or odd: http://nylira.com/en/projects/
If you view it under Chrome on a wide screen monitor:
a) To the right you can see a tiny slice of the next site in the slideshow. It's unclear at first if this slice is part of the current slideshow box, or not.
b) Clicking on any one of the links, breaks the page---removing all of the links and displaying a screen that shows two different sites side by side (but only half of each due to the window size).

Have you thought about building first version with Bootstrap from twitter?

Another great resource to get an MVP up and running is http://themeforest.net
Normally I'd agree with you but the admin themes are really only suited to basic CRUD apps. I have to present a lot of complex data without overwhelming the user, hence the need for a UI designer (lots of stats and reporting involved).
Startups like Quora for example have a mostly text based UI with very few graphics. That's the sort of UI I want to start with. Am I looking in the wrong places? Does anyone know where I can find freelance UI/UX people?
