About Me

I’m a product designer helping companies turn user experience into ROI. From immersive 3D worlds to scalable design systems, I craft experiences that not only look good—but drive results. With 10+ awards, 20+ brand collaborations, and deep roots in XR and UI/UX, I bridge design, tech, and strategy to make products people love and use.

My process blends creative intuition with AI-driven precision. I prototype fast—often using tools like Cursor, Figma, Unity, and Blender—to validate ideas early and build flows that are both user-centered and business-aligned. Whether it’s streamlining onboarding, increasing conversions, or building avatar shopping tools, every design decision ladders up to impact.

I thrive in ambiguity, work cross-functionally, and love building design systems that scale—think dark/light modes, alias tokens, and component libraries built for performance. I'm here to push boundaries, experiment boldly, and create experiences that spark delight and deliver results.

Testimonials

  • Scott Wueschinski

    Technical Director | Thoughtworks

    "I had the pleasure of working closely with Ayesha on the visual design for our Stripe partnership solution and several other pursuits. From the beginning, her creativity, technical skills, and commitment to excellence have been critical to our project's success.

    Ayesha's extensive experience in product design, storytelling, and content visualization made her an invaluable asset to our us. Her background in designing mobile and web apps and her passion for mixed reality gave us unique insights and innovative solutions."

  • David Memoji Photo

    Jamil Houston

    Creative Director | Sonaphi

    "As a startup, we have a very fast-paced work culture and within her first few days, Ms. Khan single-handedly led an internal hackathon of sorts and developed the first complete set of high-fidelity wireframes for our product prototype. Since then, I have continued to be impressed with her fresh ideas that always consider the customer-first, as well as her endless thirst for more knowledge.


    Overall, Ayesha is a pleasure to work with and has continuously contributed to a culture of creativity, innovation, and healthy risk-taking to always push past conventional norms."

    Justin Hebert

    MIT, Startup Founder

    "Ayesha was a pleasure to work with on my startup as an XR Designer. Her enthusiasm and creativity added so much to the project. She has a keen sense of organization, generating user journeys and flows to clarify and modify paths prior to development. I like that she created multiple options and quickly adapted the design to changing requirements and patiently shepherded the experience through many iterations. She is responsive to feedback and creates systems for capturing and responding to commentary. Really appreciated her advice on unanticipated pain points and taking overall ownership of the user experience. "

    Melissa Molina

    Creative Director, Startup Acquisitions

    "I was fortunate to collaborate with her on projects like an AI-powered personal assistant. Even when the direction was unclear, Ayesha jumped right in, identified pain points, uncovered opportunities through research, and translated them into thoughtful flows and prototypes. Her work was always rooted in user needs while still pushing the boundaries of what design and AI experiences could be. I can’t say enough good things about her. Any team would be incredibly lucky to have Ayesha driving innovation and creating experiences that are not only beautiful but impactful. "

My AI-Integrated Design Process & Team Collaboration

01

Understand & Align

01

Understand & Align

Kick off with discovery sessions to understand business goals, user needs, and technical constraints.

Collaborate with PMs and directors to align on product vision, define success metrics, and ensure the roadmap supports user outcomes.

Use AI tools or research and researchers to surface insights faster.

Red Pyramid

Start by gathering inspiration through moodboards, visual references, and exploring design patterns from best-in-class apps.

Study interactions and features from similar platforms, focusing on what's familiar and delightful to users to ensure a smooth experience.

Conduct traditional UX research (user interviews, journey mapping) while also leveraging AI tools like persona generators, usability predictors, and competitive analysis summarizers.

Present early research findings to PMs and engineers to validate assumptions, uncover technical constraints, and align on priorities early.

Blue Cube

02

Research & Analyze

Rapidly ideate flows and systems using AI-assisted design tools (e.g., Cursor for UX logic, Galileo or Diagram for UI exploration).

From the start, I integrate Auto Layout, Variables, and Variants in Figma to ensure scalable, clean design handoffs.

Begin early AI prototyping using tools like Builder.io, Lovable, and Cursor, especially for larger projects where faster iteration and developer alignment are key.

Collaborate closely with engineers to validate feasibility and get ahead of edge cases, while keeping PMs involved to align on business logic and feature prioritization.

Green Cylinder

03

Ideate & Prototype

Define scalable systems using Figma Variables, Auto Layout, and Component Variants to support light/dark modes, state changes, and platform responsiveness.

Ensure all variables are on-brand and aligned with the company’s design vision, while also being flexible enough to adapt quickly if branding evolves.

Share the system with directors and other designers for feedback and alignment, and document it clearly so it can scale across teams and products.

Orange Sphere

04

Design Systems & Variants

Thoroughly test the prototype or feature with all edge cases before handing it off to developers—this reduces back-and-forth and surprises in implementation.

Run UX testing where possible (via moderated tests, Figma prototypes, or AI-generated feedback tools) to validate usability and flow.

Keep PMs and engineers closely involved early on to make sure the design is technically feasible within the current stack, fits into the roadmap timeline, and won’t create bottlenecks during development or integration.

Purple Circle

05

Test & Iterate

Provide clean documentation and redlines with versioning built in.

Host live syncs with engineers for dev QA, prototyping clarification, and post-launch polish.

Act as the bridge between design, engineering, and product, ensuring the build matches vision and functionality.


Yellow Heart

06

Handoff & Support

After launch, track product performance with dashboards (prefer AI-Assisted) and user feedback loops.

Debrief with the broader team to capture learnings, what worked, and what we’d optimize next time.
