I'm a multidisciplinary digital designer with experience building web products and apps. In the past, I have worked with startups, small business, larger companies, and governments to design and build products to help their users and meets their business goals.
As a self-taught designer, I spent the early part of of my career working as a freelancing, before joining an agency in 2011, after which I worked at Andela, then went ahead to join Konga.com — An e-commerce company in Nigeria, mainly focused on building out the payment vertical of the company.
In 2017, I joined Booking.com, and spent 3 years working on various projects across multiple teams - My longest being in the User Generated Content (UGC) team where I worked on efforts to improve the decision-making process for customers and increase revenue for the business.
In my past life working at an agency, I worked closely with small and large companies, helped to build startups and co-founded one.
My experience spans across multiple roles including; print design, web and app design, ux writing, web development, design-thinking, experimentation, user research, usability testing and front-end implementation.
I have a background in graphic design, architecture and a degree in urban planning.
In my spare time, I love to read, create art, play video games, or take pictures.
