TESTIMONIALS
HOW I GOT INTO DESIGN
My father was a Structural Designer and my brother is an Architect- so you could say it runs in the family!
I have been fascinated by interfaces since the very early age of 5, when I laid my hands on my first computer and was mesmerized by the sights and sounds of Windows XP. It might sound funny but drawing the Bangladeshi flag in MS Paint as a child may have been my gateway to the realm of design!
In 2016, I started my BBA in Marketing at IBA, University of Dhaka- the leading business school of Bangladesh. It was customary there for the junior cohort to organize Bangla New Year celebrations at campus. However, our cohort was in a bit of a pickle as they were being unable to find someone to design the invite and banners for this event. Eventually, I stepped up to the task with my design skills and I delivered with flying colors. Soon, I was designing event identities and merchandise both on and off campus.
In 2020, I graduated from IBA and joined as a Management Trainee at Robi Axiata PLC, the 2nd largest telecommunications company of Bangladesh. The routine 9-5 life and being stuck in Dhaka traffic meant I no longer had the bandwidth for my creative endeavours. Yet, I yearned to get back into designing in some shape or form.
In 2022, I earned the “Google UX Design Certificate”- my first UX certification course online. I learned the basics of UX, but there was no avenue for me to put theory into practice. Coincidentally, a UX/UI role opened up at my organization and I applied for it. That is the story of how I landed my first UX role as the sole UX/UI Manager of the My Robi and My Airtel self-care apps, two of the most popular apps in Bangladesh.
Over the next three years, the apps grew from having just 6 MN Monthly Active Users to 21 MN+ while I grew infinitely as an individual. My design solutions and layouts became the canonical standard in the telco industry of Bangladesh and were contributing more than 25% revenue of a billion-dollar Multi-National Corporation.
My hunger for learning and challenges inspired me to take the next big leap. I left the comfort of a stable, successful career and my home country to pursue my Masters in Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Maryland in the Fall of 2025. I found some of the most accomplished people in HCI academia as my faculty and the brightest talents from all over the world as my classmates and friends.
After completing my first semester with a 4.0 GPA, I’m now focused on applying my experience in a U.S.-based UX internship for Summer 2026—bringing together research, product thinking, and real-world impact in a new design context.
Boy, that was a lot of reading!
Hopefully, the music is keeping you entertained...
