Suhail Jaffer

Hi, I'm Suhail. Inspired by growing up in T Tanzania, I use design to solve problems and produce measurable results in teams of all shapes and sizes around the world. I serve the public in C Calgary and have worked at corporations including N Nokia as a leading contributor, consulted for startups like B Beem to strengthen their value proposition, and helped small businesses such as H HearWell expand their reach.

My goal is to create accessible experiences intended to be used and loved by millions globally. Learn more about why I design here.
