Product Designer | Mechanical Engineer | Innovator

With a Bachelor of Technology in Mechanical Engineering from the Federal University of Technology Akure, I have gained hands-on experience in product design and engineering. As a Product Designer at KawaK, I collaborated with cross-functional teams to develop a user-friendly product, focusing on seamless user experience and interface design. My internship at FrieslandCampina honed my project management skills and deepened my understanding of workflow optimization in mechanical engineering. Additionally, my experience as a Product Design Intern at HNG Internship and UX Designer at Chuuse allowed me to contribute to the development of AI products and user experience enhancements. My passion for creating innovative solutions is evident in my work, and I am committed to leveraging my skills to drive impactful change in the field of engineering and product design.
