Hi, I'm Reza
With over a decade of experience as both an architectural designer and a general designer, I have cultivated a rich background in shaping aesthetically pleasing and functional spaces. Recently, I took a significant step in my professional journey by earning the Google UX Design Professional Certificate, marking my commitment to transitioning into the dynamic field of UX design. My proficiency extends beyond traditional design, encompassing a deep understanding of design thinking and user-centered design principles. I bring a unique blend of creativity, precision, and a holistic approach to problem-solving. I am excited to leverage these skills to create impactful and user-centric digital experiences in the evolving realm of UX design.
