UX design & research, grounded in systems.
I’m Shariq — a UX designer with a background in visual communication, working inside real operational environments. I focus on research‑driven problem solving and systems thinking: understanding how people actually move through a process before redesigning it.
Research‑led design, inside real constraints.
My work sits where design, research and real‑world systems meet — understanding how people interact with a process, and how that process can be improved through thoughtful, evidence‑informed design. Right now that means running operational workflows in a fast‑paced school, alongside independent UX work for real clients.
