About

Hello: I’m Ifaat. I love to use my natural curiosity about the world and human behavior and connect them to research, design and tech to solve problems and create multiple solutions for users. As a digital designer/art director, I have experience working directly with the client/stakeholders, helping them develop a strategy to achieve their business goals and user needs with data, design and tech. I often have to remind my clients why it’s not enough to have a great product, and how important it is to take a user-centered design approach for every product they create.

I value collaboration, diversity and transparency in the world, in my work and my relationships. Collaborating with others makes me a more informed and better designer and creates the best solutions.

I have worked both independently and in teams with owners, stakeholders, developers, etc. As a designer, I am always open to exploring new avenues and learning different ways of doing things.

In my free time, I enjoy making visual art, exploring museums and being a part of a book group I co-founded. Drop me a line if you want to start a conversation and/or explore some work together.

Take care, Ifaat. Pronounced: “Ifit” (Oh, the stories I could tell living with this name…). ifaatq@gmail.com

My favorite books currently: "Exit West: A Novel" by Hamid Mohsin, "The Vegetarian" by Han Kang and "On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous" by Ocean Vuong."
