Hi, I'm Nicki, I design products people actually enjoy using.
I'm a UX/UI and Product Designer based in San Francisco with experience across mobile, web, and SaaS. I specialize in taking complex, messy problems and turning them into clean, intuitive digital experiences.
My path into design isn't a typical one. I studied Psychology at San Jose State, then spent time as a Behavioral Health Technician working one on one with children on the autism spectrum. That experience shaped how I think about design permanently. I learned that how people actually behave and process information is rarely what we assume. I bring that lens to every project.
I trained formally in UX/UI Design at Career Foundry, expanded into front-end development at General Assembly, and most recently earned IBM certifications in Generative AI for UX/UI Design. I'm always adding tools that make me a better, more well rounded designer.
I've shipped a native mobile app from scratch, redesigned enterprise wellness platforms, and run client projects end to end through my own studio, Adibi Design. I work best in collaborative environments where design has a real voice, partnering closely with product and engineering to get things built right.
I've also completed freelance engagements I'm unable to showcase due to client agreements, happy to speak to that work in conversation.
I'm currently open to full-time UX/UI and Product Designer roles at mid-size tech companies, startups, and enterprise teams in the SF Bay Area.
