I worked for
As a Product Designer, I worked on various retail and internal (staff) projects with Emirates NBD and with Nymcard—a SaaS FinTech solution. Earlier, I worked as a front-end developer with Nymgo (2016) and Born Interactive (2011) building web-application, admin dashboards and e-commerce websites.
In my last job at Emirates NBD, I had the chance to lead the design team of the Business Banking tribe for 3 years. I made sure they laugh Monday to Friday.
