Here's a little more about me!
My journey into UX was shaped by my identity, I'm the daughter of immigrants (Iranian dad, Ukrainian mom) and was born hard of hearing. I grew up watching products get designed without people like me in mind, which is why I care so deeply about accessibility and inclusive design.
Outside of UX, you’ll usually find me with a camera in hand, capturing people, places, and little moments. Some of my favorite shots are below :)

I think pareidolia is so interesting (that thing where your brain starts seeing faces in random objects, like clouds or outlets). It’s fascinating how we can find patterns, especially faces, in just about anything. To me, it’s a reminder that design is all about perception, and there are so many ways to create something that people will connect with.

My process is hectic, and that is exactly how it should be. One of the most important lessons I have learned in my studies is that the design process is meant to be agile and flexible. If it is not, you are not making a good design. So, when challenges arise and things seem to be unraveling, it's crucial to understand that it's an integral part of the creative journey and contributes to the evolution of a successful design.
