About Me

From Graphic Design
to AI-Native Product Design

My journey started in Cairo in 2006 as a graphic and web designer, grew into leading design teams and UX strategy for clients across the UAE, Qatar and KSA, and since 2017 has focused in Abu Dhabi on government e-services, executive dashboards and enterprise systems. Today I own the process from research to developer handoff — side by side with product and engineering teams, with AI built into how I work.

How I Work

Turning Ideas Into Real Products

I own the process end to end — a design-thinking, user-centred approach grounded in usability testing and measurable outcomes.

01.Research & Discovery

User research, stakeholder interviews, personas, journey mapping and information architecture to define the right problem.

02.Design & Prototyping

From wireframes to high-fidelity, interactive prototypes in Figma, Sketch and Adobe XD — validated through usability testing.

03.Design Systems & Handoff

Scalable component libraries and design tokens, with structured handoff and design QA for pixel-accurate builds.

How I Use AI
in My Design Process

AI is my thinking partner, not a replacement for research or craft. It speeds up the heavy lifting so I can focus on the decisions that matter to users — every output is reviewed by me, and client data stays private.

Research & Ideas

Faster synthesis, user flows and bilingual UX copy.

Visuals & Prototypes

Moodboards, quick prototypes and design QA.
