I'm Shiblee, a designer and engineer, in other words, a creative technologist. I live in the Bay Area, where I prototype for Google's Virtual Reality team. I studied Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Michigan and I'm passionate about design and technology.
I love creating stuff, both virtual and physical. In addition to my experience in developing software for almost every major platform, I have also designed and engineered physical prototypes, hardware and scale models. My rapid prototyping skills make me a unique product designer and an ideal hacker.
Details of the awards are in LinkedIn.
I have been actively volunteering since I became a Boy Scout in middle school. In addition to starting the first ever ACM chapter in Bangladesh, I have contributed to a number of organizations and played leadership roles in local and national levels. Flip to see the list of organizations I had been involved with.
I have a Masters degree in Human-Computer Interaction from the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor with a focus on UI/UX design and a Bachelors degree in Computer Science from BRAC University. Flip card for the list of notable courses.
My love for arts and design started very early. Before I had a computer, drawing was my most favorite hobby. Today, I am a designer of user interfaces, interactions, experiences, visualizations and various other visual contents as well as 3D modeling and motion graphics/animations.
Since I started programming, I have developed applications for most of the major platforms, including desktop and mobile devices. I not only develop software solutions, but also hardware prototypes. My primary interest is in the intersection between engineering, art and human interafces.
