UX/UI Designer & Researcher and Illustrator
Hello there! I'm Muna Abdirahman, a passionate UX/UI designer and researcher based in the vibrant city of Minneapolis, Minnesota. My professional journey is a colorful blend of creativity and functionality, shaped by my diverse experiences in the realms of game concept art, book illustration, and the exciting world of UX/UI design.
For six years, I delved into the realm of game concept art, contributing my artistic flair to the creation of immersive gaming experiences. Following that, I dedicated three years to illustrating for books and various companies, adding a storytelling element to my artistic repertoire.
Driven by a desire to embrace new challenges and explore uncharted territories, I made a bold career change to UX/UI design and research. This transition wasn't just a leap; it was a deliberate step towards something that had always fascinated me. The UX/UI industry captivates me with its dynamic blend of creativity and problem-solving, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it.
Embarking on this journey was no easy feat, but the challenges have been immensely rewarding. I find joy in the process of crafting intuitive and visually appealing user experiences, constantly pushing the boundaries of my skills and knowledge.
Beyond the pixels and wireframes, I have a profound interest in children's illustration. I am currently immersed in learning and honing my skills in this delightful niche, aspiring to contribute my creativity to the world of children's literature and entertainment.
Away from the screen, I am an avid nature enthusiast. I find solace in hiking and exploring the beauty of the outdoors. Nature, with its intricate designs, inspires my creativity and fuels my passion for design thinking.
In my downtime, you'll likely find me immersed in the world of comics, reveling in the artistry and narratives that unfold within each panel. I'm also a perpetual learner, always eager to discover new tools and experiment with complex programs that challenge and elevate my skills.
Join me on this exciting journey where art, technology, and nature converge to create meaningful and delightful experiences. I'm not just a designer; I'm a storyteller, an explorer, and a perpetual student of the ever-evolving world of design.
