Ehab AJ Al-Ani
UX/UI Designer & Developer
Profile summary
Driven by a genuine passion for crafting solutions that truly resonate with people and make their lives easier, I'm a UX/UI Designer who brings a unique blend of skills to the table. I'm a lifelong learner with a solid foundation in computational thinking, algorithms, and data structures from Harvard's CS50, and I'm a Google UX Design Professional Certificate holder. I combine a talent for analytical thinking with a deep sense of empathy and a solid foundation in technical concepts. My unconventional background, which includes exploring dentistry (where I honed my critical thinking and empathy) alongside my self-taught journey into Java programming and my new proficiency in languages like Python, C, SQL, and HTML/CSS/JavaScript, allows me to see design challenges from multiple perspectives. I'm genuinely excited by the entire UX/UI process, from diving deep into user research to creating intuitive and engaging interfaces, and I thrive in environments where collaboration and shared ideas lead to the best outcomes.

Key skills
Professional experience
Overseeing distribution across multiple Middle East countries and a network of 8 distributors, a new strategy was implemented, improving delivery times by 15% and cutting logistics costs by 10%, while increasing UAE market share by 22% through strategic partnerships and training staff.
I managed all the office operations and led a team, while also obtaining agencies from manufacturers and negotiating prices. Additionally, I created and submitted invoices, and I was responsible for handling transfers and payments to manufacturers. I also took on a significant project where I digitized and organized five years' worth of hardcopy files, which not only improved accessibility but also successfully reduced physical storage space by 50%. Beyond that, I effectively managed complex calendars for two executives, navigating competing priorities and scheduling conflicts with an impressive 95% accuracy. A particularly rewarding part of my role was onboarding and training four new employees, ensuring their smooth integration and helping to significantly increase their productivity within the first three months.
Completed one year in each of the following sections: Fixed prosthodontics, Removable prosthodontics, Conservative dentistry, Oral medicine and periodontics, Oral radiology, Pedodontics, Oral and maxillofacial surgery, G.A. (General Anesthesia), Endodontics, thereby leveraging strong empathy and user-centered problem-solving to diagnose and treat diverse patient needs across 9 specializations. I developed and meticulously executed complex treatment plans (analogous to Information Architecture and Wireframing) requiring high attention to detail and critical thinking, and regularly conducted patient interviews to understand pain points, translating subjective needs into objective treatment goals, a process directly transferable to UX research and User Testing.
