I believe leadership is about building resonant relationships and empowering each team member's unique potential. Here's how colleagues and collaborators describe working together.

I worked with Fas for almost exactly two years within Meta's Enterprise Infrastructure & Security Product/Design organization. Fas joined as a design manager and was absolutely instrumental in reshaping our design approach.

Fas introduced advanced system design processes to the team and promoted consistency and standards across the org. He brings unique academic pedigree to the field and acts just as much of a teacher as he does a manager. His team was often digesting new learnings and concepts as part of his leadership approach.

As I work cross-functionally in the org, the standardized approach to design became evident in a short matter of time as our interfaces, branding, and interactions all started aligning in application.

Working with Fas was a privilege and I'm excited to see the next chapter in his career as he completes his dissertation and continues to contribute to the greater design community both professionally and academically.

Fas has been instrumental in accelerating my career growth. Under his leadership, our team transformed from a group of individual contributors to a cohesive and high-performing design team.

Fas leverages his extensive knowledge and experience to constantly identify leadership opportunities for us, enabling impactful contributions beyond our immediate network and fostering individual growth aligned with our career ambitions. He methodically breaks down complex problems and develops frameworks that ensure simple yet strategic execution.

All the while, Fas maintains realistic expectations, being mindful of our day-to-day obligations and thoughtfully adjusting his initiatives to better accommodate our needs.

If you're finding your design team's growth stagnant or difficult to prove impact, I highly recommend Fas who can help teams grow and thrive. His leadership and expertise have made a significant impact on my career, and I am confident he will do the same for others.

Fas is a designer, entrepreneur, professor, and scholar, and a humble human-being. I have come to know him as a strong leader who inspires others to be their best and most creative selves. At Meta, he and I led initiatives to determine the customer journey for developer tools, learn more about developers’ experiences, and propose improvements to product workflows and designs.

For each step of the way, Fas established frameworks to obtain first-party user insights to guide product development and implemented best practices to improve our team’s operational efficiency and standard of excellence.

I’m proud to call Fas a colleague, mentor, and friend.

Fas is a bright and outstanding individual. Teaming up with him and having him as a mentor for a startup to show me the ropes for someone who doesn’t know anything about how to set up and run a successful start up, has been the best experience I’ve had. He’s able to stay calm under pressure, and dig deep to find solutions to issues he comes across. He has an undying knack for UX design, and is highly driven to creating a user experience that’s functional, versatile, and memorable for any customer that comes across his work. I would definitely recommend Mr. Lebbie to work as a UX designer for any company that is looking for pure talent, or even some sort of management position that allows him to grow more upon his ability to teach others like he did for me.
