Hi Kin + Carta, it’s Nabila!

 
 

I appreciate you wanting to get to know me. Let me share with you a little bit about myself, why I think we’d work well together, and how I can contribute to your team as an Experience Designer.

When I was 17, I wanted to teach biology.

 

I believed that nothing was more important than exploring our world and educating people about it.

Though I didn’t end up studying in a lab coat, I realised that what I actually wanted to do was transform big ideas into journeys that can enrich people’s lives.

That has kept me driven thus far. Whether I’m taking clients along my design-thinking process, translating user data into journeys and flows, or building content strategy that attends to people’s emotional needs - the nuances of design and storytelling excites me!

How I work

I use design-thinking.

User research keeps me focused. The iterative method keeps me humble and determined. Perfection is a myth; my goal is to deliver better products.  

I am explorative.

Give me user insights and I’m like a kid in a candy store. I enjoy learning surprising things about people. It challenges me to define unexpected opportunities.

I am collaborative.

As a former clarinetist in a band, I crave creative camaraderie. I stand shoulder-to-shoulder with my teammates, trusting that we can all contribute something valuable to the table.

My skills

As a career switcher, I get to leverage the skills I’ve gained in my past life as a Marketing Exec. It shapes me into the UX Designer I am today.
