My goal is to craft engaging digital experiences
to forge lasting user connections
Hello,
I'm Sara Sallam
An Egyptian designer now rocking it in the Netherlands.
With over 6 years of experience in UI/UX design, I’m here to sprinkle some creativity and innovation on product and dev teams.
What do I do.
I’m a design wizard with a bag of tricks! My portfolio is a playground of skills that include rocking UX research, crafting eye-catching visuals, and having a blast during customer interviews and usability tests. I have this uncanny talent for deciphering usage data like it’s a secret code. Oh, and I’m buddies with software like Pendo, Hotjar, Usability Hub, Figma, and a bunch more. And guess what? I’m not just about the glitz and glamour – I’m a guardian of accessibility too, ensuring that design isn’t just a thrilling adventure but an inclusive one for all!
A little about my background,
With a Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design as my foundation, I’ve blended a strong grasp of design principles with hands-on experience in crafting the UI/UX for softwares across diverse industries, ranging from CRM, fintech to Digital Asset Management, and beyond.
In my free time,
I’m a passionate traveler who loves exploring with my small family, whether it’s camping in the desert, embarking on whimsical European escapades, or conquering mountain hikes.
