Overview
About Me
I'm a digital nomad and I've been working from various cities and beaches for the past year. I am a UX/Product designer in a tech start-up based in the Bay Area. I'm fortunate enough to have the flexibility to work from places which has decent internet for me to stay connected.
I love traveling, meeting new people, because every new connection I make, and every story I hear always helps me understand life a little better.
On the side, I work on couple of humanitarian projects in the developing countries, hoping to change the status quo, mostly in the area of access to healthcare for the unreachable.
Other than that, I enjoy diving, surfing, biking, camping, and sometimes maybe just spending time reading in the hammock.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I've been to refugee camps in Syria (Syrian-Iraqi border. What I saw there broke my heart, but I also saw how beautiful people can be.
The Pyramids was amazing, almost believed that aliens existed :p
And I never got sick of driving up to San Francisco to watch the sunrise/sunset by the Golden Gate Bridge.
