Yassine Abouzaid is a self-taught user experience and interface (UX/UI) designer.

Currently, he works for a student housing platform and startup based in Paris, France. He shares his journey — how he created his own path, leaving an internship in business development to teach himself the ins and outs of his craft. Later, in 2017 he moved from his hometown in Casablanca, Morocco to Rennes, France with a program in entrepreneurship. Our conversation goes into his inspirations, such as fusion band Hoba Hoba Spirit that hails from Casablanca to the meditations of stoic philosopher, Marcus Aurelius.
