What I'm looking for

I'm looking to design user-centered fintech, AI, enterprise, SaaS, and banking products where research, accessibility, scalable design systems, and cross-functional collaboration drive measurable business outcomes.

I've designed fintech products for Baines Credit Microfinance Bank, Rank Fintech, WorkWithMarque, and SYNEXA Fintech, using research and usability testing to reduce user friction by 25%.

I turn complex requirements into clear user journeys, personas, information architecture, wireframes, and prototypes. My design systems have improved UI consistency and reduced design time by 20%, while design-thinking workshops increased product engagement by 30%.

Across banking, fintech, food delivery, and e-commerce, I've partnered with developers and stakeholders to deliver accessible, data-informed experiences. I also mentor emerging UX/UI designers and have guided more than 50 students through industry-standard design skills.
