Throughout my career, I have worked with various companies, including ZAPTA Technologies, IntraSols, 9D Technologies, TexPak (Pvt) Ltd, and Preesoft (Pvt) Ltd. My experience spans from conducting user research and designing visual elements, prototypes, and mockups to ensuring intuitive and accessible designs through usability testing and feedback.
