My friends call me Irtiza.

I am a multidisciplinary product designer with five years of experience, always transforming complex challenges into innovative solutions. I design intuitive digital experiences that are rooted in empathy, minimizing cognitive load and inviting users to explore, engage, and feel effortlessly in control.

I hold a master's degree in Interaction Design from SCAD and a bachelor's in UX Design, which have deepened my understanding of user behavior, aesthetics, and the principles of effective problem-solving. I strive to create work that not only solves problems, but also communicates a clear, impactful narrative that resonates with users.
