Othman Shehadeh
Logic meets Magic. I bridge the gap between strict design systems and surreal storytelling. With 7+ years of global experience (MENA, LATAM, APAC), I help Fintech and Web3 brands break the 'corporate blue' mold to build immersive, high-conversion worlds. Expert in scaling design systems and integrating Generative AI (Sora, Kling, Krea) into enterprise workflows.
What I do
Strategic & technical: Design systems (Figma), remote team leadership, UI/UX design, brand architecture, cross-cultural localisation
Creative & AI: Art direction, surrealist 3D visualisation, generative AI video (Sora, Kling, Veo), prompt engineering, world-building
Sometimes I use
Figma, Adobe CC, Krea AI, SORA, Kling AI, Google Workspace, Slack, Jira, Confluence, Notion, ClickUp, and more…
