Hi 👋🏻, I am Khalifa!

30 yrs 🕶 / Cairo, Egypt 🇪🇬 /  Product Designer 💻 / +7 years of experience 👨🏻💻
I design digital products that make both stakeholders and users happy

My Story

I was born to be a designer 🎨

My journey towards finding my true passion for DESIGN began early. I started learning graphic designing tools like photoshop at only 14 years old. I further explored various types of design during my days as a student: I learned designing social media posts, logos, banners and illustrations.
I love to design, but also as I got older I discovered a new passion for tech and products, so I , after a lot of studying, became a mechanical engineering graduate. Realizing that my path is still a bit different, I needed to find a job where I can merge my technical skills with my artistic ability and I found it! I believe digital product design requires the same level of thinking as engineering, but it is one step ahead as it combines art and technology- That’s really my cup of tea!
As a guru in digital product design, I apply aspects of psychology, business, market research, and design to deliver products that are tailored to the specific users and brand.

My Vision and career objectives

As I strongly believe that UX design is a powerful medium to scale up businesses, I aspire to craft more quality designs for more brands helping them reach their own unique success.  My goal is to build and lead product design teams for successful products. Also, I am dedicated to pass my expertise to fresh talents and to mentor ambitious product designer..

“I have watched entire digital products fail, no matter how much money they spent on coding their digital products. The missing and most important puzzle piece is always User Centered Designs.”

My experience

Day-to-day work life 💻📝

I deliver products that are both delightful and profitable. For me, a nice work day always begins with a nice cup of tea. At work I go beyond delivering a traditional digital product, but explore with you the user and business needs. I am an experienced user-centered UX designer who believes in the power of design thinking and user research .I follow my passion and do the things I love most: creating effective digital products that solve problems and make life easier, but also like to spend time exploring tech and new things along the way. Most of the time you will find me at work or at home (attending a meeting, conducting research, interviewing users, or designing new projects).

At work I Empathize, Conceptualize, Visualize, Test and Repeat
Designing is a complex process that only begins after interviewing the stakeholders, defining and agreeing on the the business goals and objectives.
