I'm a UX Designer living in the bustling city of Dubai.
I graduated with Computer Science degree and decided to face uncertainty and rejection by pursuing UX design, while having a software development background from university.
After facing said rejection and difficulties, I am proud to have stood up for what I am passionate about, and I feel that the world is open for me to learn, explore and impact.
I look for a clean, tolerant work culture where people are sincere with each other as well as the work they do. I thrive with people who are excited about their work and the impact it has on people, and I infect others with this passion and excitement as well.
I love technology and have a thing for smart home devices in addition to other personal gadgets. I like adventurous long drives and I can't resist coffee when I have a choice!

Seera Group (Almosafer, Tajawal) - User Experience Designer
I'm currently in Seera Group, which includes Almosafer, the Middle East's leading online travel agency based in Saudi Arabia, and Tajawal, which based in the UAE.
I started out as an intern here and have professionally grown a lot since them. The large size of the team and the expansive region we serve helped me better collaborate with lots of differerent teams and stakeholders and build empathy for our user base.
publicis.sapient - User Experience Designer Intern
I did an internship with the MENA office of the digital agency Publicis.Sapient, whose parent company is the French Publicis group. Working in an agency exposes you to a variety of different projects at different stages and keeps you fresh and dynamic.
Viafone Technologies - Mobile Developer Intern
I worked in this startup called Viafone Technologies where I used React Native for implementing part of their loyalty app. My time there taught me how to figure things out on your own when there's hardly a handful of people working with you.
