I’m Yassir Hanzife, a UX designer and Webflow developer with a lifelong love for graphic design that began when I first heard of the internet in 2008.
I started with Photoshop CC, explored gaming during my childhood, and drew inspiration from YouTubers like MKBHD when they were first starting out.
From an early age, I was always drawn to how technology influences the way we experience the world, whether through the immersive storytelling of video games or the sleek, simple design of everyday apps.
My path to UX design wasn’t exactly traditional. I actually started off as an Airbnb host in 2014, which, funny enough, ended up playing a huge part in my career shift.
Hosting taught me just how important it is to create seamless, user-friendly experiences via the app.
It opened my eyes to how much thought goes into designing environments, whether they’re physical spaces or digital ones, that feel inviting, intuitive, and easy to navigate.
My formal path into tech started with an IT degree, but what truly sparked my shift to UX design was discovering platforms like Pinterest and Airbnb.
These platforms showcased the power of visual aesthetics and intuitive design in creating smooth, engaging user journeys.
I found myself obsessively analysing interfaces, questioning why certain elements worked while others didn’t, and envisioning how I could improve them.
That fascination eventually led me to pursue UX design professionally.
Today, I craft user-centred designs, mostly for SaaS apps, mobile apps, Webflow development, and XR projects — bringing these designs to life.
I freelance, which gives me the flexibility to explore different industries, from e-commerce to SaaS platforms, and even AR/XR projects with a former AI start-up — always ensuring the user experience is as refined as possible.
I also focus on creating content that helps teach others about UX design and emerging technologies.
