A little about me
I'm Ernest Ojeh, a UX Designer currently living in Lagos, Nigeria. I work at Konga.
Most of my work revolves around designing and rethinking digital experiences. I focus on interface design, development, prototyping, and user research. I believe design should align with, and help achieve business goals and objectives.
I have a background in Architecture, Urban Planning & Graphic design.
Sometime in the past, I worked at a web design agency where I had the privilege of building awesome products and working with clients like Unilever, PAL Pensions, Brandsmith Consulting, Cellulant Mobile, and Lagos Business School.
You can find me on twitter or send me an email.
My interests include; art, philosophy, music, photography and tech.
