Hi! My name is Rakan, a multidisciplinary designer based in Zurich, originally from Jordan. I have been working in various fields for over 10 years.
As a designer, I am passionate about creating meaningful and engaging experiences for users. I believe that every design should be user-centered, and my goal is to create designs that truly meet the user's needs. I am always on the lookout for new ways to blend my skills in user research, UX/UI design, prototyping, and user testing to produce outstanding designs. In my free time, I also enjoy dancing and playing music, which are hobbies that further expand my creativity and passion.
