@akumbomsonia
Organized administrative professional and junior UI/UX designer focused on usability.
What I'm looking for
I am an organized administrative professional with over three years of experience supporting senior-level executives and managing day-to-day office operations. My academic background in Sociology strengthens my client interactions and helps me approach problems with empathy and insight.
As a Junior UI/UX designer, I bring hands-on experience in user research, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing, and I am proficient with Figma and Canva. I have contributed to mobile app screens and early-stage AI chatbot design while translating research into actionable design improvements.
In administrative roles I have managed scheduling, calendar and email coordination, record keeping, CRM updates, and event promotion across nonprofit and corporate settings. I have supported meetings, documentation, and cross-team collaboration to streamline workflows.
I am tech-savvy, a quick learner, and comfortable with Microsoft Office and Google Workspace. I seek roles that allow me to combine administrative excellence with user-centered design to improve processes and product experiences.
