Environment Designer, Senior Design Insights & Trends Strategist, Senior Experience Designer.
Over six years at Ziba, I held various roles, each contributing to my expertise in multi-disciplinary design. As an Environment Designer, I led and participated in the design exploration, development, and execution of diverse projects. In my role as Senior Design Insights & Trends Strategist, I served as a lead experience designer and design researcher, focusing on understanding human-centered insights and leveraging consumer trends. As a Senior Experience Designer, I specialized in 3D experience design, creating interactions within spaces, designing architectural elements, and managing the flow and scripts for temporary or semi-permanent experiences. My background in architecture informed my approach to designing both physical spaces and service systems, incorporating digital elements without focusing on digital interaction design.
