About Me

 

Hi, I’m Shima — a UX Designer and Cybersecurity Analyst who believes that technology should feel effortless, empowering, and safe. I’m passionate about designing intuitive, human-centered experiences that not only delight users but also protect them.

My journey blends two worlds that don’t often meet: design and security. On one hand, I focus on understanding people — their goals, frustrations, and behaviors — to craft experiences that feel natural and meaningful. On the other, I bring a security-first mindset to every project, making sure those experiences are also built on a strong foundation of trust and protection.

From user research and interaction design to prototyping and usability testing, I love turning complex problems into simple, elegant solutions. I collaborate closely with teams, listen deeply to users, and continuously iterate based on real feedback — all while weaving cybersecurity best practices into the design process.

I’m a lifelong learner, always exploring the latest trends in UX and the evolving landscape of cybersecurity. Every project I take on is an opportunity to solve meaningful challenges and help create a digital world where people feel both empowered and secure.

Let’s connect on  LinkedIn— I’d love to collaborate on impactful, forward-thinking projects.
