Who am i? 🧐

By nature I am a listening soul and a kind teamplayer who loves interacting with people to collaboratively create beautiful and meaningful user experiences and user interfaces. I have an immense passion for delving into user research and crafting user experiences and interfaces based on data. With a blend of education and years of hands-on experience, I've immersed myself from through every phase of the entire design process, continuously expanding my expertise. Defined by my willpower, curiosity, and attention to detail, I approach both work and life. I firmly believe that curiosity and determination are key to success in any endeavor. My inherent curiosity consistently push me beyond limitations to deliver exceptional work that reflects my values.

user research
‍

My curiosity has always shaped my approach, evident in my deep dive into user research and efforts to stay updated with the latest methods and studies. Proficient in utilizing qualitative, quantitative, and eye-tracking data, whether independently or in cohesion, I carefully select methods that offer the most value. The outcomes of my analysis provide actionable insights that drive improvement in overall user experiences for softwares, products or services. Beyond design, I believe my expertise in understanding users can contribute in different environments.

wireframing and prototyping

When it comes to UX and UI design, you can't get away from wireframing and prototyping as they are important activities reaching the goal of creating amazing user experiences and UI designs as well as using it to communicate my ideas an vision. I use Adobe XD, Marvel, InVision, and Figma as wireframing and prototyping tools. Sometimes I create physical prototypes to ping-pong possibilities of ideas. It often helps the teams get a better understanding of the ideas as well as it allows the teams to give great suggestions on improvements.

ux/UI Design
‍

I bring a combination of engineering perspective and creative problem-solving perspective to develop user experiences and user interfaces that people love to use. I always work user-centered by combining the stakeholders' vision and users' need to create amazing user experiences. All my UI designs are made in Adobe XD, Figma or Sketch while graphical designs are made in Adobe Illustrator or Adobe Photoshop as I am an expert user of those software. Do you use another software? No problem, I am a quick learner who can easily adapt new software into my working process.

Nilan is a stand-out talent in all the right ways. I supervised Nilan when he had his 4-month internship as a researcher at LEGO in 2019, and always enjoyed his positive approach and keen interest in user research. He may not be the loudest, but his opinions and inputs speaks volumes of his well-developed sense of research, design and UX. You would be lucky to have Nilan as your team member, colleague or manager.

I worked with Nilan during his time at LEGO on a piece of messaging research for a new franchise coming to market. Nilan's enthusiasm and can-do attitude was instrumental on this project and he delivered valuable insights to build our campaign around.

After working with Nilan in many constellations for more than two years, I can confidently say that Nilan is a joy to work with. His academic strengths are complimented by his demonstrated digital and physical design skills, which have resulted in awesome designs being transformed from idea to reality time and time again.

Nilan would be an asset to any organization that deals with realizing challenging ideas and problem-solving with the end user in mind.

Nilan is a talented and creative interaction designer who has many skills. He can build interactive prototypes, conduct evaluations with users and fits well within any design team. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Nilan for three years, during which I supervised his master thesis project, that he demonstrated in a public expo with many thousands of people. Above all, I have been impressed with Nilan’s ability to dig in and resolve technical challenges quickly. Nilan would bring value to any organization looking for a resource who can contribute on technical projects as well as conducting user research. I would highly recommend Nilan!
