02 · The sender

I design trust-first experiences for sensitive data.

Product designer with 4+ years across EdTech, LegalTech, FinTech, AI and enterprise, working with PMs, engineers and researchers from research to handoff.

What I specialise in. Permission and sharing models, source attribution for AI answers, and the internal tools behind them. I’ve shipped a consumer mobile app used by 200K people a day and bilingual Arabic and English products for Saudi Arabia.

An audit nobody asked for. A friend mentioned that the Qur’an for All app felt outdated. I audited it on my own for my portfolio and sent it cold to the institute’s founder. They hired me to lead the redesign.

04 · Packing method

How every item gets made.

  1. 01

    Audit & research

    Start with what’s broken and who it’s broken for: UX audits, surveys, interviews and following real tasks end to end.

    Qur’an for All: ~1,900 survey responses
  2. 02

    Frame the problem

    Turn findings into a clear problem, the workflows it touches, and the numbers that will say whether we fixed it.

    Malakah: 12 interviews, 6 mapped workflows
  3. 03

    Structure

    Set the information architecture and core flows before any pixels, so the product has a shape engineers can build on.

    Malakah: one access model across 4 levels
  4. 04

    Design & prototype

    Design the UI and the system behind it, including right-to-left Arabic and left-to-right English, and prototype the risky parts.

    Bilingual RTL / LTR design system
  5. 05

    Test & iterate

    Put prototypes in front of real users, watch where they struggle, and change the design before it reaches code.

    Malakah: 10 usability sessions
  6. 06

    Ship & measure

    Work through trade-offs with PMs and engineers until it ships, then measure whether it actually worked.

    Save-for-later completion 0% → 92%

Handling instructions

  • Design for the edgesStart with the people who struggle most; their success is everyone’s.
  • Question the pattern“Always done” isn’t always right. Defaults get challenged.
  • Share the stumblesMistakes are data. Talking about what failed makes the team faster.
  • Skin in the gameShipped work speaks for you, so design it responsibly.
