About Mustafa Ali Akbar
UX Designer at Dell
Hey, I'm Mustafa—a game dev turned designer. Currently, I'm a Senior Product Designer at Motive. Previously, I was a Design Lead at Educative, where I built and led a team of 10+ designers. I have significant experience in building 0 to 1 products and establishing the product design function and culture in a company.
Over the course of past 2 years, I have reviewed over a thousand portfolios and interviewed hundreds of designers. I can help you with portfolio reviews, preparing for interviews, and practicing for whiteboard challenges.
After all these years of learning, I want to give back to the community by helping budding designers find their place in the world of Product Design.
Feel free to hit me up!
