About

Hi, I'm Golnaz, a digital product designer with a background in fine arts and visual communication, and 5+ years designing web and mobile products for agencies and startups.


I came to product design through visual storytelling, and that still shapes how I work. I care as much about how something looks and feels as how it functions. I design end to end, from research and wireframes to polished, accessible interfaces and the design systems that hold them together, and I'm just as comfortable with the brand and visual work that real projects always seem to need.


I run projects independently and love working closely with founders and cross-functional teams, often helping early-stage clients turn a blank page into a clear direction. What I enjoy most is the mix: combining research, aesthetics, and functionality into products that look sharp and actually solve the problem in front of them.
