About me

Adnan Afana a UX/UI designer with a background in civil engineering. My journey began with self-learning and led me to the UX/UI Technical Training at Gaza Sky Geeks (GSG), where I became the top participant and co-mentor. Before graduating, I secured my first freelance job on Upwork, launching my career in design.

After a successful year on Upwork, I joined Dash Company, earning recognition as the ideal employee in my first month. I then expanded my expertise at Yalla Cooperative, where I blend creativity and functionality in every project. I believe in the power of design to create meaningful connections and enhance user experiences.
