At this point, I'm certain you already know my name, so I obviously need no introduction. My professional life has been one hell of a roller coaster—how I arrived at this point still amazes me.

I've always been someone who loves and appreciates all kinds of art. As a kid, I used to get mad at myself for not knowing how to draw; I felt that people who could sketch characters with a pen had superpowers, and I wanted to feel that way. This strong desire to create art in one form or another led me to discover graphic design right before I got admission into university. I started by designing flyers for my friend, who was a DJ.

Fast forward to my third year as an undergraduate, I realized I was really good with visuals. That was when I joined a tech startup called Nodex iHub in Delta State, Nigeria. The little experience I had as a graphic designer helped me evolve into a UI/UX designer. I also joined the Zuri internship program as a UI/UX Designer. Zuri was my foundation in UI/UX and the beginning of a new, challenging chapter. My first design project to go live was the Nodex iHub website—I still remember every process like it happened yesterday. However, during my final year at Nodex, I found myself focusing more on visual designs, which slowed my growth. It was then I realized it was my cue to leave the team.

After my time at Nodex, I started freelancing as a UI/UX designer. I got a couple of gigs that helped me learn so much about UI/UX. Some of the products I worked on went live, while others ended halfway through.

A year later, I secured an onsite full-time role as a Product Designer at Silicon Africa Technologies in Owerri, Nigeria. This was a whole new experience for me—meeting new people and working closely with them. I learned a lot during my time working onsite before transitioning to a remote role.

Another year later, I landed a remote full-time role as a UI/UX Designer at 3D7 Technology in Manchester, United Kingdom.

Since then, I’ve been on a constant journey to keep learning new things and improving my skills. One thing that is most important to me is adding value wherever I find myself. Even if I don’t earn well, knowing I’m someone you can’t afford to lose because of the impact I make is more important to me. Because with value comes respect, and with respect comes your worth.

That’s it! I hope you enjoy my portfolio and would love to connect if there’s an opportunity to work together or chat about design.

Outside of my job:

I’m a lover of music, video games, movies, anime, great conversations, meeting a few people, and enjoying life with loved ones.
