Shamim Nourbakhsh
Hi, I’m Shamim. I was born in Esfahan, Iran, on September 10, 1995. I studied Architecture for my bachelor’s degree and later earned my master’s in Interior Architecture. After completing my studies, I shifted my focus from architecture to interaction design. Currently, I am working as a Junior UI/UX Designer. I hope to further explore user experience and how people interact with technology and space.
