About
Hi, I’m Hilal.
I design products and then build them, using code and AI.
I’ve been designing since 2022, starting with freelance UI/UX and web work. From March 2023 to April 2024 I was a UI/UX Design Intern at Quackly in India, designing e-commerce and logistics interfaces, running usability tests and working in Jira sprints.
At KPU’s Wilson School of Design I studied Front-End Development for Interactive Applications and completed the diploma in May 2026. Alongside it I worked for a BC dealership group and a Vancouver creative agency, designing and building a 20+ module dealership platform and client websites, designing a peer-to-peer rental product, and building AI agents and launch campaigns.
I design and build with AI because it lets one person cover the full loop: product and UX design, front-end build, automation, and the creative that launches it. LotStudio AI, my own SaaS product, came out of that. Building with AI is about testing, noticing what breaks and why, and making product decisions from there.
