About me

Dornaz Vazifehaali

I’m a Senior Design Consultant based in Milan, passionate about crafting meaningful, user-centered experiences.

I began my journey as a curious product design student, fascinated by the way ideas could take shape in both physical and digital worlds. Over the years, my path has carried me from Iran to China and now Italy, each experience sharpening my eye for culture, context, and the human side of design.

What started as a passion for creating meaningful products evolved into a focus on digital experiences—where storytelling, structure, and usability converge. Today, as a freelance digital design consultant based in Milan, I aim to bring this international perspective into every collaboration, crafting solutions that bridge creativity with purpose while continuing to grow as a designer who connects people, systems, and stories across borders.
