Head of UI/UX & Creator Experience

    Layla Nassar

    Layla designs the creator-facing experience at FollowerStar and runs our editorial research on what actually moves the needle for new accounts.

    Layla Nassar leads UI/UX and creator experience at FollowerStar. She joined the team after five years building creator tools at a venture-backed influencer marketing platform, where her work shipped to 200,000+ active creators.

    Her editorial focus is on the operational side of growth: posting cadence, content scheduling, the timing of paid boosts, and how to read the early signals that a Reel or TikTok is going viral. Her research is based on continuous data analysis across the FollowerStar order pipeline.

    Layla also leads the localization effort that brought FollowerStar to German and Spanish markets, ensuring the product feels native - not translated - to creators in every supported region.
