I was in the same class with Shaza at the UofT School of Continuing Studies Ui/Ux bootcamp. Shaza is very creative, knowledgeable, a fast learner, and a great team player. We have collaborated on several school project, and she was always very cooperative, supportive, and willing to help. She was also always willing to test my other projects, and gave a lot of useful feedback. I would recommend Shaza as a great Ui/Ux Designer or Reasercher with a strong IT background.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Shaza in the UX/UI bootcamp. Shaza was definitely at the top of our class and always willing to go above and beyond to help anyone in need. She's extremely knowledgeable in UX/UI design and will flourish in this career. Shaza is compassionate, helpful and would be an asset to any team!
