How I got here
I started with web design at Omega Computer Technology in 2018, building pages for small businesses in Ilorin and learning how much of the work is listening before drawing. In 2021 I moved into UI/UX at Malhub, where I first ran interviews and usability sessions and saw research change a plan.
In 2022 I trained in software engineering at Cypherdev so I could talk to developers in their own terms and hand over files they can build from. That mix, research, interface and a working knowledge of the build, is what I bring to a product team.
Since then I have designed as an intern at Digprom, on contract at Malhub and, most recently, as a UI/UX intern at Recilens. The four case studies on this site come from that period.

What I’m looking for
A full-time product design role on a small team where research is part of the job, not an afterthought, and where I can own a problem from the first interview to the handoff. I work remotely from Ilorin and keep overlap with any timezone.
