Shahriyar Mohammadi

Ive loved making things for as long as I can remember, and wrote my first program when I was 6 years old, just two weeks after my mom brought home the brand new Macintosh LC 550 that I taught myself to type on. Over the past 10 years, I have had the chance to work with well-known brands such as Panasonic, Swarovski, TEDx, and Tommy Hilfiger, providing them design solutions, marketing advice, and business strategy. Furthermore, I am a Product designer mentor at Careerfoundry and teach design at the University of Sarajevo.

I have masters degree in Computer Science and have launched two startups goody.ba and qootiya.com, which means that I perfectly understand both the business and tech aspect of design.

I spent the next few summers indoors working on a rocket design, while I recovered from the multiple surgeries it took to fix my badly broken legs. It took nine iterations, but when I was 15 I sent my dads Blackberry into orbit and was able to transmit a photo back down to our family computer from space.

Tools and equipments

I get asked a lot about the things I use to build software, stay productive, or buy to fool myself into thinking I’m being productive when I’m really just procrastinating. Here’s a big list of all of my favorite stuff.

    My favorite tool for brainstorming, designining, collaborating and creating beautiful products.

  • Notion

    I use notion as my planner, which includes the year, monthly weekly, daily goals, and tasks.

  • Adobe Suite
