Hi, I'm Arooba.

I'm a Product Designer with a background in digital marketing, e-commerce, and user experience. My passion for design grew from seeing how small usability challenges could create meaningful barriers for real people, inspiring me to create experiences that put people first.

I believe great design becomes invisible — when products are intuitive and accessible, people stop thinking about the interface and focus on what matters. That's why accessibility and cultural awareness sit at the centre of my work: friction falls hardest on the people the default wasn't built for.
