Hi there. Welcome to my website.
I'm Tuba, a mission-driven product designer, and educator, designing experiences that enable creativity and learning for people.
Addressing the “why” behind both problems and solutions is essential to my design process. I believe in the power of diverse teams in product development and value involving team members with different expertise in early ideation.
I'm a system thinker and a true ENFJ. When I'm not creating tools and systems to make resources more accessible, you can find me mentoring and helping others grow in their careers.
