I am a creator, connector, and curator with a Psychology background and working across UX, Product, and Data Science. I am also a builder of people, communities, and experiences.
I have worked with startups, agencies, and multinationals with focus in multiple countries including in Sub Saharan Africa, Europe, North America, and SouthEast Asia to better understand people and problems so they can create useful and usable products and services as well as delightful experiences that meet customer needs and organisational objectives.
I do this through research, design thinking, customer experience, and teaching, training, consulting, and facilitation.
Some of the organizations I’ve worked with include CcHUB, Interswitch Group, 54gene, Paystack, Google, and Lobster Ink, and my work has cut across various areas including voice assistants, browsers, localisation, healthcare, financial services, and education.
Working also as a Career and Personal Development coach, I help people find clarity about their career plans and goals and helps them in taking the decisive steps they need to achieve them. I also write, teach, and share resources to help people grow.
I’m heavily involved in community building activities, especially those focused on supporting women to get into tech and to advance their careers in whatever industry they are in. I am a strong advocate for diversity and inclusion.
I regularly speak on various topics of interest at conferences and events. I’ve given talks and hosted various events including World IA Day, UXInsight Festival, UX South Africa, Women Tech Global Conference, Inclusive Product Week, TECHKNOW Festival, ProductTank Nairobi, Product School Lagos, SheCodeAfrica, Google Dev Fest, WeTech, and Social Media Week.
My writing has appeared in various publications including InVision Design, UserZoom, UX Collective, Business Insider SSA.
I am also a mentor at ADPList, ForCreativeGirls, Ladies That UX Amsterdam among others and have mentored startups through DFSLab Bootcamp, AngelHack, and Google Launchpad.
While my interests are wide and varied, my top cares are Jesus, my family & friends, and building products, people, communities, and experiences. I also enjoy reading, Netflixing, traveling, hosting, baking, and finding new hobbies.
