# Hamza Qureshi, UXC > Crafting the future of commerce through research-driven, business-backed design | 📍Boulevard Location: New York City Metropolitan Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/hamzaqureshiuxc Hi, I’m Hamza. I’m a product designer who helps companies envision and deliver cutting-edge experiences to consumers. As a designer, I believe that my work should be user-focused and business-backed, with a pulse on what’s next. You can find me in the New York metro area, where I’m working as a Senior Product Designer at Boulevard, a business-in-a-box solution helping shape the future of self-care by giving businesses the tools they need to grow and thrive. I’m crafting the future of Boulevard’s commerce toolkit by investigating, designing, and delivering financial enablement solutions that make it easier for businesses to build revenue and scale. Before Boulevard, I’ve designed high-impact initiatives at CodeSignal, Teachable, Capital One, Carnegie Mellon’s Robotics Institute, Gap Inc, and more. On the side, I love baseball, new foodie spots, messing around in cutting-edge design tools, furniture shopping at secondhand sales, my cat Franklin, using lower-case and Oxford commas whenever appropriate, and advocating for what’s right.
