About me

Hey, I'm Ben, based in New York, and I'm a recent graduate of Designlab Academy. I bring a fresh perspective and a keen understanding of user-centric design methodologies.

 

Through comprehensive final projects, I tackled complex design challenges, creating intuitive solutions like a moderator bot for WhatsApp group chats, an AI-powered budgeting feature for a fintech app, and a responsive website design for mobile and desktop that utilized Ai technology and a native speaker pairing feature.

​

With proficiency in design tools, I demonstrate a solid grasp of UX/UI principles, including user research, information architecture, visual design, and usability testing.

 

I also have a BA in Communications, Politics & Marketing from Reichman University in Herzliya, Israel.

 

I'm excited to collaborate with industry professionals, contributing my skills and passion for user-centric design. As a lifelong learner, I'm eager to continue growing and making a positive impact in the field.

Personal

In my downtime, you'll usually find me trekking through hiking trails near my home. Being out in nature with good friends is where I feel most recharged. I also love getting lost watching interesting documentaries that explore different cultures and ways of life.

At the end of the day, I'm just a curious person who wants to understand what makes people tick. Whether it's having deep conversations with friends over dinner or listening to podcasts about random topics, I'm always trying to gain new perspectives and learn something new.
