Sivaranjini Kamaraj
I had the pleasure of working with Kalid on building a Digital Web App for one of our high profile clients and he came into the project well after the Discovery phase was completed and when there was a huge backlog of design work to deliver under a tight deadline. He took on the challenge with a can-do attitude and was able to learn the domain quickly, understand the customer problem, technical limitations, facilitating design workshops, incorporating client feedback through rapid prototyping and delivered high quality designs on time exceeding client expectations. His attention to detail, ability to understand the problem first before crafting a solution/ design for it and deliver high quality craft even under challenging circumstances will make Kalid a valuable asset to his team. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him as a Senior Designer in any industry.

Kalid and I worked together on a client's large product design project to create a national product that would be released to over 600,000 users. Kalid's responsibilities included taking the customer requirements that were discovered and developed by the product strategist and product owner on the project, and designing the core UI and user experience across these requirements and the entire product. Kalid's output was of a very high quality whilst meeting implementation timelines. He is a quick and effective designer, creating very thoughtful user experience and UI design, with a holistic perspective of not only of the feature he designing but also of the full product. Kalid is also a team player, with a very passionate and humble attitude toward his work, and is always looking to see where he can further support the team in achieving the best outcome for the product and it's customers. For anyone looking for UX/UI design skills, Kalid comes highly recommended - Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about Kalid and my experiences designing a product alongside him!
