Senior Product Designer

Match Group

  • As a product designer working across multiple group brands, I had the unique responsibility of overseeing the design of the Muslim dating apps within the MatchGroup portfolio. In particular, I worked extensively on the Hawaya app, which quickly became the leading Muslim matchmaking app. Working alongside an exceptional product team, I played a key role in the research and design process, gathering helpful insights from our group's brands such as Tinder, Hinge, and OKC. Together, we created a whole journey that is safe for Muslims to find serious marriage matches.
  • Through our efforts, the Hawaya app has become a massive success, with over 3 million downloads globally and an average rating of 4.7 stars. Our commitment to creating a meaningful impact on people's lives has resulted in over 100,000 successful matches on the app, leading to countless happy relationships and marriages within the Muslim community. I am proud to have been a part of this effort and remain dedicated to designing products that empower and support diverse communities.
