About Me

Hi there! I was born and raised in Baghdad, Iraq and currently I'm based in the Research Triangle Park, NC. From a young age, I've had a deep appreciation for art in all its forms, from sketching and painting to admiring it from afar. However, my time in college introduced me to the world of UX design, and that was the turning point for me. Being able to tell stories, share experiences or make someone's life easier is what inspires me to grow in this field. I love to consider UX design as another form of art, but with a focus on creating experiences that are both intuitive and inclusive for the target users.
