Hi, I'm a creative designer who enjoys turning ideas into visuals that people can connect with. My design journey started about a year and a half ago, and what began as curiosity has grown into something I truly enjoy and want to keep building on.

I work across both graphic design and product design, using tools like Figma, Canva, and Adobe Illustrator to bring ideas to life. Along the way, I’ve had the chance to work on projects like Afri Bite (a food website), Homeconnecti-fi (a home rental platform where I led the team), and the Law Assist project, which taught me a lot about designing for clarity and usability. I also designed a magazine for Global Media News, worked on branding for Usability for Africa, and created flyers for Grace Fortress Church. Each of these experiences has pushed me to grow, experiment, and adapt my skills to different kinds of design challenges.

Beyond the tools and projects, I’d describe myself as detail-oriented, curious, and someone who enjoys problem-solving. Freelancing for the past seven months has also taught me a lot about communication, time management, and working with people to understand their vision and bring it to life.

What excites me most about design is that it’s more than making things look good — it’s about telling stories, solving problems, and creating experiences that feel meaningful. For me, every project is an opportunity to learn and to create something that makes a difference, no matter how small.

When I’m not working, I’m usually exploring new ideas, learning fresh skills, or just finding inspiration in everyday life. I believe creativity is a journey, and I’m enjoying every step of mine.
