Experienced Product and UI/UX Designer
With a degree in Adult and Continuing Education and Teaching from the University of Lagos, I have a strong foundation in education. My professional journey includes co-founding and leading product design at Eversend, a financial technology company. I also provided mentorship at Designlab and worked as a UI/UX designer at Fippay, Novugrid, and allestup. Additionally, I have experience as a User Interface Designer at Fixas Lab and Edulite, where I contributed to creating and designing user interfaces and experiences for various apps.
