Super Samario
An augmented reality experience somewhere in Los Angeles.
Augmented Reality with Professor Ron Frankel in partnership with Samora Deng​
​
While taking a stroll in Westside Los Angeles, Samora takes on a fun-filled adventure he stumbled upon in a sunny Venice Beach parking lot. This course challenged us to incorporate augmented reality software into our usual architecture discourse. Inspired by Super Mario Bros., the video was created using Maya, After Effects, and Premiere Pro. Filming, music and sound effects were also completed as a partner effort. This is Super Samario!

Product Designer in Los Angeles
Hello, I'm Bez! ✨
I'm a product designer with an architectural mind and a passion for people!
​I spent almost a decade shaping physical spaces before transitioning into product design, where I've been crafting intuitive, inclusive digital experiences that solve real problems for the last 5 years.
My background in architecture taught me how to balance structure with beauty, and more importantly—how to design for how people feel in a space. I bring that same mindset to the digital world!
As a product designer, I specialize in experimentation, research-driven design, and collaborative problem-solving. I've worked with global teams at Microsoft, Carvana, and other mission-driven companies to improve customer journeys, optimize conversion flows, and build with empathy.
Beyond design, I LOVE to stay creative! I mix music with ACPLDJS, dance anywhere I hear a beat, and explore the newest spots in my community and around the globe—because creativity and connection fuel everything I do. 💖
If you've like to learn more about me, let’s connect—I’d love to chat!
In the words of my teammates ...
I cannot say enough great things about Bez!
She is everything you want a UX Product Designer to be. She is curious, digs deep, asks questions, follows the data, collaborates, questions, partners, presents, and executes at the highest levels. Her passion and her drive live squarely in parallel to her extraordinary organizational and detail driven skills.
- Jamie L, UX Global Design Lead, Manager @ Microsoft
Bez is an absolute joy to work with and any team would be lucky to have her! She is both driven and eager to learn. Her attention to detail, innovative thinking, and dedication to user-centered design principles make her a stand out professional in the field. Bez is an exceptional product designer— she consistently impressed me with her remarkable ability to turn ideas into beautifully designed, user-friendly products.
