Hi! I'm Nur and here's a little about me
I was born in the cozy, small, and cold town of Lisakovsk and later moved to Almaty, the 'southern capital' of Kazakhstan. Drawing captivated me from childhood, and I often created artwork for my classmates during school competitions. I enjoyed humanities and languages the most, especially when it involved organizing and presenting information clearly and attractively. These early interests hinted at my future career in a field that combined visual creativity with information management.
Despite this inclination, I initially pursued a degree in agricultural engineering at university, a field valued in my country, aiming to become a skilled professional locally. However, my creative side prevailed. After university, I ventured into graphic and web design, working at a digital firm. This transition marked the beginning of my career in design, a path that has proven both exciting and fulfilling.
As I delved deeper into my field, I realized my passion for impacting people's lives through design. This led me to explore various aspects of product design, participating in hackathons, and constantly learning about the development process. The projects I've worked on have been significant milestones in my design journey, challenging me to identify problems and find solutions, a process that motivates me to persevere through the toughest challenges.
My journey in design has not only been about fulfilling my creative desires but also about contributing meaningfully to society. The skills I've honed—attention to detail, perseverance, and a commitment to quality—are tools that help me leave a positive mark on the world through my work.
