Hi, I'm Yazeed

Part designer, part problem-solver, all about the user.

With 16+ years in UX, I design experiences that simplify complexity and put users first.

I follow a structured UX process grounded in research, ideation, and collaboration. My approach includes defining project goals, building information architecture, creating wireframes and prototypes, refining designs through user testing, and working closely with developers to ensure seamless handoff and post-launch success.

At the core, ideation drives the process—from initial concepts to polished prototypes.

Empathize

Understand user needs, motivations, and pain points by conducting user research.

Define

Analyze research data, Identify user goals and align them with business objectives.

Ideate

Brainstorm user-centered ideas and collaborate with teams to prioritize viable solutions.

Prototype

Develop prototypes, wireframes, and mockups to visualize and test ideas.

Test & Iterate

Validate designs through usability testing and refine them using feedback and analytics.

I’m excited to share a bit of my world with you. With over 16 years of UX experience working with some amazing top-tier companies, I’ve built a career around designing intuitive, user-first solutions that make a real difference. Right now, I’m in the middle of refreshing my portfolio with recent case studies and design stories that dig into my process, the challenges I’ve faced, and the meaningful impact my work has had.
