ALAA TELLAT

USER EXPERIENCE DESIGNER, ARCHITECT + URBAN PLANNER

Hailing from Casablanca, I studied and worked in Paris, and I am now thrilled to call Chicago home. I am seeking a career change in User Experience Design, a field that harmonizes well with my current career as an architect of buildings. I have over five years of face-to-face client and industry experience.

Past work includes: Architectural and urban planning design, Interior and furniture design, Renovation and reevaluation of buildings, and Public participation in urban design. 

I am a firm believer in that designers are citizens of the world first, nations second. We lift one another, impress one another, and never stop learning from one another. I am especially eager to apply what I’ve learned in both France and Morocco—two countries globally adored and revered for their art and architecture—now in a city that many call an architect’s dream.

I recently started a blog. Check it out!

I am fluent in English, French and Arabic, fully authorized to work in the US and do not require visa sponsorship.
