During a week long design sprint called SCAD Startup, we were asked “where do we go from here”? My team and I made an addition to that question…
“Where do we go from here if they’re not here?”
They being the hundreds of thousand of international students looking to create a better life for themselves through working in the United States. Tau ended up placing 3rd out of 93 teams and 300+ students.
Ghalib was a fantastic UX design intern; probably the strongest I've worked with. As an intern he already showed confidence and capability with our platforms like Figma, and he contributed significantly on several projects. One of the main projects he worked on that he supported heavily was touted by our client as some of the best UX we have put forward.
Ghalib worked well within our UX team but was also great at collaborating and communicating with our creative and development teams. We do a lot of joint discipline working sessions and Ghalib was always engaged and not shy about participating and sharing his ideas.

He was a great asset to our team in the time he was here and we even jokingly tried to persuade him to skip out on the rest of school and stay working with us. Whoever has him next, whether that is an internship or full time job, will have gained a great

If you’ve already met Ghalib - even just over video chat - you’ll have a strong sense that he is a bright, enthusiastic, and kind young man. After working closely with him for several months, I can confirm that your intuition is spot on.
Ghalib was an intern for the iCrossing UX team over the summer of 2022. He quickly proved to be a critical player on our team. In just two short months, Ghalib worked on a range of projects across multiple accounts. I had the privilege of overseeing him build an extensive set of wireframes for iCrossing’s largest account. He designed them thoughtfully and efficiently, taking any critical feedback with both grace and a creative response. Even more to our delight, the client was thrilled with the result!
What perhaps impressed me most about working with Ghalib was that, despite his obvious natural talent, he remained humble, respectful, and a true team player. When internally presenting designs for the iCrossing website, he took care to hand the spotlight over to our other summer intern and to acknowledge the team’s efforts.
Over his summer with iCrossing, Ghalib made real contributions of which we are still reaping the benefits. His positive attitude and friendly spirit left a mark that I think is rare among interns.
I have no doubt that Ghalib will be a stellar addition to any design team lucky enough to find him.
