Profile: https://flows.cv/maryamladoni

Senior UX / Product Designer focused on design systems, education-focused products, and AI-aware UX.

I work on complex products and turn them into clear, usable experiences — especially in healthcare, education, SaaS, and internal tools, where accessibility, trust, and clarity matter.

A big part of my work is building and maintaining design systems: components, accessibility improvements, documentation, and patterns that help teams scale and move faster.

I also teach UX design, which has shaped how I communicate, mentor, and collaborate across teams.

Open to Senior Product Designer, UX Designer, and Design Systems–focused roles.
