As a designer & researcher, I use research, empathy, and creativity to design solutions that are not only visually pleasing but also meaningful and impactful!
Empathy, Growth, Teamwork - Designing a Better World
Hello 👋🏾
I'm Hanan! My journey into the design world began with a passionate desire to create meaningful, user-focused experiences that promote empathy, inclusivity, and accessibility. As a graduate of the University of Waterloo’s Stratford School of Interaction Design and Business, I’ve built a strong foundation in blending design and strategy to transform human experiences.
Since graduating, I’ve worked on diverse projects as a freelance designer, collaborating with clients to craft thoughtful solutions that center on human needs. While freelancing has been a rewarding chapter, I am eager to return to a corporate environment where I can contribute to impactful, large-scale projects and thrive within a collaborative team.
My passion for social impact drives my commitment to using design as a tool to address real-world challenges. I’m especially drawn to opportunities that allow me to create solutions promoting equity, sustainability, and positive societal change.
What I value…
Empathy
My commitment to empathy goes beyond design; it's a fundamental value that guides my interactions with both users and fellow team members. I believe that connecting and communicating with others is the key to truly understanding their needs and creating effective solutions.
Growth
I thrive in environments that foster personal and professional growth. Whether it's staying updated with the latest industry trends or tackling complex design problems, I'm at my best when I'm continuously learning and improving my craft.
Teamwork
Great designs are born out of collaboration and strong communication. I firmly believe that working closely with a diverse and dynamic team leads to innovative solutions that prioritize equity and inclusivity. I'm dedicated to contributing my skills and perspective to a team that shares this vision.
