What people say

Behdad turns ambiguous product problems into shipping-ready flows with rare clarity. His behavioural-design lens consistently lifts our key metrics.

Sara Mohammadi

Engineering Manager, Nobitex

One of the few designers who can hold both strategy and pixel-craft in the same week. He raises the bar for everyone around him.

Arman Karimi

Head of Product, Aban Tether

Pairing with Behdad on research means insights actually translate into product decisions — not just slides.

Niloofar R.

Senior Researcher, Digikala

Calm, opinionated, and deeply curious. The kind of design partner that makes engineers want to ship a little nicer.

Pouya Tehrani

Staff Engineer

Behdad designs with intent. Every interaction, copy choice, and edge case feels considered — not decorated.

Maryam K.

Product Lead

We hired Behdad to consult on onboarding — three weeks later our drop-off was down by a third. That speaks for itself.
