BEYOND THE WIREFRAMES...

Personal Marquee 3 Personal Marquee 3

I'm Naima, a masters student at Stanford studying Product Design and Computer Science: Human-Computer Interaction. My interests range from digital design, to music, to visual art.

I asked my friends to describe me with one word and the responses I got were jolly, vibrant, confident, loyal, yappy, and whimsical. I'll leave you to make your own judgements.

WHY VOICE?

I'm currently doing the Bell AI fellowship where me and 3 other fellows are learning how to build a consumer Voice-AI product. I've learned a lot about the value of designing with voice through this experience, including why it's a winning modality, how to meaningfully integrate visuals to a voice interactions, and the design principles surrounding voice design.

I wanted my portfolio to be as easy to navigate as possible, both for people viewing it and for myself. I hope to keep adding voice features to this website, and ultimately reach a point where people interacting with my website can directly ask questions about my design decisions and projects.

MY ART

BOOKING DOECHII

My senior year at Stanford, I was one of four co-directors of the Stanford Concert Network. SCN is a student-led group that brings all the live music to campus. Our biggest event is Frost Fest, the annual spring festival at Frost Amphitheater that draws more than 8,000 people. Previous headliners include Amine, Denzel Curry, Blxst, and many more.

We really wanted the student body to be excited about the artist we chose to headline this year. We started planning early, talking to students, collecting dream lineups, and balancing all of that with a very real budget. After months of negotiating and timing the moment just right, we booked Grammy-winning artist Doechii and brought Zack Fox as a supporting act. We anticipated Doechii’s rise months before she really blew up, and it paid off!

For the first time in Stanford history, Frost Fest sold out. The energy was electric, the show was seamless, and the campus response was genuinely positive.

What it looked like building this website...

The dorm rooms, the aux, the company, and the snackies.
