Hi there! I’m Nabila.

Previously an engineer, I transitioned to UX Design as it tied up all my interests in a nice little package.

It combines:

  • My drive to create better outcomes for people
  • Experience in science, human-centered thinking and process-oriented solutions.
  • Interweaves my passion for art and creativity. 

I aim to create designs that are usable and accessible, and am a big advocate for end users. However, I think outside the box and bring creativity when it comes down to satisfying client’s requirements.

I bring transferrable skills such as problem solving, open communication, teamwork, critical thinking, adaptability, and attention to detail. I’m also great at research and documentation. These skills will help you realise your vision and bring it to reality.
