Hi! I’m Shaheim, a product designer based in Pittsburgh. I create user-friendly interfaces for fast-growing startups.
Hey there! I’m Shaheim, a Junior UX Designer from Pittsburgh. I was raised in Jamaica but moved here in 2018 and have been around computers my whole life, not to mention using the Adobe suite products since 2013. I really like to solve the problems of today because my children will be reaping the benefits tomorrow. Whether it’s pen and paper models or doing interviews I enjoy every second of knowing that I’m making it easier for another person to utilize the project I’m working on. I went to an advertising school in Brooklyn where I have worked with companies like LG, and Body Armor. When I’m not designing or learning I am waiting for Breath of the Wild 2 to be released.
I usually work on B2C software, that's my forte--where I shine best. But I also have about 3 B2B software products in my portfolio. I do end-to-end product design + branding.
I only charge hourly for my ongoing projects that need work on the regular. My hourly rate is $40.
I work Pacific Standard Time, but I'm always ready to help out in emergencies, no matter the hour.
Depends on the scope of the project, really. Some projects take less than a week. Some take months. The best way to find out is to get on a quick call with me, and discuss it. No strings attached!
I quote a price upfront--so that you know exactly what you're paying and for what, and there are no surprises later. The exact cost of your project depends on the scope and requirements!
I take a problem-forward approach. Whether we're iterating on an existing product or building a new one from scratch, how to solve the user's problem in the simplest way possible is my first concern.
Send me an email to understand my process in depth!
The best metrics are customer adoption, happiness, task success, and engagement. There are a number of frameworks such as the System Usability Scale that help us understand product performance and I'm happy to help with that.
I always make sure to help out my clients one month after the project ends, for free. For any help post that, we can work out an ongoing arrangement!
