About
I’m a Product Designer with more than 14 years of experience in UI & UX.
I’m focused on creating meaningful experiences through design. I am excited to have the opportunity to showcase my skills and experience in this field. Having carefully reviewed the job description, I am confident that my skill set aligns perfectly with the requirements of the role. With a strong background in UI/UX design and a keen eye for detail, I have successfully delivered user-centric designs for various digital products.
Over my years of study and work, I've built a successful career in information technology. I have expertise in various areas like Interaction & UI Design, Visual Design, UX Design, Prototyping, Illustration, Design Systems, Animation, User Research, Design Thinking, Decision Making, Problem Solving, Innovation, Collaboration, Customer Focus, Planning & Organisation, Business, Market & Technology Awareness, and Relationship Building.
I'm currently a Design Manager at beIN Media Group in Qatar, overseeing 10 team members and all beIN Digital Products. Previously, I held the role of Product Design Manager at OSN, having been promoted from Senior UI/UX Designer. I contributed to projects like OSN Streaming, OSN.com, OSN STB, and MyOSN. Additionally, during my time as a UI/UX Designer at Intigral, I worked on the Dawri Plus project, recognized with awards like the MENA Digital Awards 2017 for Best Application and honours for Best Digital Strategy 2017 & Innovation in MENA Sports 2016 from the BROADCAST PRO SELEVISION SUMMIT AND AWARDS. These achievements reflect the dedication of both my team and me.
