Brand designer at Contra creating identity systems, brand guidelines, and marketing assets for remote clients.
What I'm looking for
At Contra, I deliver brand identity and visual design for remote clients across multiple industries. I develop logo systems, brand guidelines, and marketing assets tailored to each client's voice and audience.
As a freelance graphic designer, I created social media graphics, event flyers, YouTube thumbnails, and promotional assets for clients across Nigeria. I served churches, community organizations, and small businesses.
At Bluestone Pod, I led designers and set creative direction, and later oversaw operational workflows and project delivery. I also created campaign materials for Gerbera Care Foundation, supporting its advocacy and community outreach programmes. I'm expanding into Framer development to offer end-to-end digital experiences.
