Welcome to my portfolio

Intro

Hello! I am Deba. A Designer with nearly a decade of experience creating intuitive, meaningful, and visually engaging digital experiences. Passionate about interaction design, visual systems, and turning complex ideas into clear human-centered communication.

Work

My work is at the intersectionality of Education, Marketing, Illustration and Concept Art.

Hydraulics Basics

The Problem

Technicians needed foundational knowledge of hydraulic systems inside wind turbines — specifically three core components: Valve, Accumulator, and Filter. Hydraulic fluid behavior is dynamic and invisible in static diagrams, and the circuit symbols were completely unfamiliar to new learners.

UX Design Decisions

Bladder Accumulator — step-by-step reveal

Step-by-step progressive reveal — each click fills the accumulator with fluid incrementally

Valve Actuation — interactive symbol cards

Circuit symbols taught as clickable cards — active discovery instead of passive memorization

Cumulative circuit — all learned symbols placed inside a real-world system diagram

UX Flow

Enter Module ↓ Concept Introduction (what is this component?) ↓ Video: fluid in motion + circuit diagram animates in sync ↓ Symbol Guide: interactive legend of electronic symbols ↓ Mid-module Questionnaire (formative check) ↓ Repeat for all 3 components ↓ Surprise Questionnaire (retention check — unannounced) ↓ Module Complete

Outcome

Learners progressed from zero hydraulics knowledge to reading real circuit diagrams — identifying components, understanding fluid flow, and recognizing industry-standard symbols in context.
