Testimonials
Working with Khayam has been a pleasure. He’s one of the most proactive designers I’ve worked with, always stepping up to take ownership of challenges. Khayam led our design system, defined mobile-first patterns, and ensured best practices in highly regulated areas like crypto banking. He creates thoughtful, user-first solutions, tells compelling design stories, and consistently brings attention to detail. His ability to work autonomously in complex environments and his deep understanding of design thinking made him a major asset to our team. I highly recommend Khayam as a top-tier product designer.

Head of Product Design, Amina Bank
Khayam was a great asset to the Allica Bank Payments squad. Working on an array of new product features, and contributing to the new, overall design system, khayam had a solid understanding of UX / UI design, and was willing to openly work alongside engineering to come to conclusions quickly but effectively. I'd happily recommend Khayam to any engineering team going forward.
Andrew McCullough
Lead Engineer, Allica Bank
Khayam has an incredibly unique way of seeing design, combining creative with usability. Khayam helped advise me on the UX of my site, from landing page through to end user content. The result was a smoother user experience and in the field of journalism, this is the most important aspect in order to retain readership. Furthermore, Khayam’s eye for mobile-web specific design is apparent and definitely ahead of trend. Khayam went above and beyond to create a structured plan to assist me in creating a better mobile user experience for readers. Overall, Khayam’s projects have shown his knack for UX/UI and his creative flair is a true testament to his work.

I had the pleasure of collaborating with Khayam on a design system for a highly complex project at Fathom. Throughout this process, he displayed an impressive ability to take on feedback and solve any issues I raised, while at the same time, taking ownership of the design. Khayam was a highly valued member of our team, and I look forward to collaborating again.
Ben Griffith
Tech Lead, Plus
Khayam is an excellent designer who's talent and professional skills make him a credit to the team. His forethought, attention to detail and consideration for edge cases make him a pleasure to work with. He always works with consideration for the technical side of how his designs would be implemented and was able to quickly answer any questions I might have in this regard. His communication skills are great and he is always able to explain his thought process behind a decision. I really enjoyed working with Khayam and would recommend him a designer who would deliver fantastic value to any team.
Tom Overton
Android Engineer, Monese
I had the opportunity to work with Khayam for in his role on the Monese payments team. During which time, he proved to be a strong asset to the team, and I recommend him forward for a senior or lead design position. Khayams strengths were demonstrated to me through his ability to use his passion and energy to drive problems forward each day, and reach a well thought out, well crafted solution. Khayam also works well in group environments, giving useful feedback and direction to other designers on the team, contributing towards building a strong design culture within the business.
Joe Allison
VP of Design, Monese
Khayam is an adaptable, thoughtful and insightful product designer. He is an all-rounder - with an excellent ability to interact with both clients (presenting ideas, providing rationale and gaining insight from them) and with design team members (UX & UI) to create a positive working environment. Our developers loved Khayam's practical skills (figma pro? yes!) and our design team loved his passion and knowledge to shape best in class software!
