Kind words

Lina has been a creative force in our team in the last three years, steadily and relentlessly increasing her expertise in product design, UI and UX. She studies new trends, tools and techniques and selflessly updates the team about them, motivating everyone and improving their skills and knowledge.
With her excellent communication skills and prowess, she is the designer that we loved to have in our meetings with the clients. As designers’ feedback and estimations are usually hard for the clients to digest, a persuasive voice from the design team giving the details while understanding the business concerns is invaluable - and Lina has been such a voice.
She is frank and outspoken in our internal design sessions, generously adding her spicey critical views to our discussions. But once we settled and a decision was made, she is committed to all decisions alike - which makes her an outstanding team player.
I think she is on the right track to becoming a decision-maker herself, and with some more people skills and a front-end development perspective, she will make a fabulous design manager.

Amin A. - CEO Bent Oak systems

Our professional paths intersected for a brief but impactful period. We collaborated on a single project, and it was a standout experience. Lina's departure from BentOak preceded my arrival, but the project we worked on together left a lasting impression on me, showcasing her skill and dedication.
Lina's work ethic is truly exceptional, and it's reflected in the consistent praise she receives from clients. Her ability to immerse herself in the product, grasp every nuance, and provide valuable insights to stakeholders is remarkable. She's not just keeping up with the latest trends; she's defining them, and her willingness to share her knowledge is a testament to her character.
For anyone in search of a product designer who brings both passion and skill to the table, look no further. Lina is the embodiment of both, making her an invaluable addition to any team.

Ayla S - Design Lead

As the head of digital marketing, I worked with Lina directly for nearly two and a half years on diverse projects.
She is a great team player and is plain fun to be around.
Her approach of taking the initiative to find creative ux design answers for complex problems with a humble attitude while being open to learning new methods and tools was essential to her team.
Her unique combination of drive, curiosity, and being a proactive learner will take her far.

Bahar H. - Digital marketing manager

It has been a great pleasure to work alongside Lina for a short period. She is highly detail oriented and eager to learn. A Good team player with organized mind. I look forward to working together
again and recommend her enthusiastically and without hesitation.
