About Me.

I'm a product and UX designer based in Dubai, with 5 years designing for enterprise software, FMCG e-commerce, and digital platforms. I've led projects across the US, UK, Asia, and Australia — working end to end from research and user testing through to visual design and developer handover.

Currently available for full-time roles in Dubai. Spouse visa valid until May 2027.
