Hello, I'm Kerim Hadzic, a Product Designer based out of Iowa.
ABOUT ME
Creating immersive and beautiful experiences for all users.
A designer and developer with over fifteen years of experience in the industry. I have a passion for learning and utilizing the latest product design processes, methodologies and interaction designs to create wonderful digital products and customer experiences.
Currently you can find me at Amazon where I am the Senior UI/UX Designer working on multiple large scale projects. During my time here I've helped establish and grow our design team, implement new tools and services, while focusing on delivering delightful experiences to our users.
When I’m not designing products you can find me at your nearest airport traveling to some new destination. I’m very enthusiastic about exploring new places, foods, and cultures while meeting people from all walks of life. If I’m not traveling I’m most likely exploring the outdoors with friends and family.
