Ikenna Okoronkwo
@ikennaokoronkwo
I am a UX/UI designer focused on user-centered, data-driven product design.
What I'm looking for
I am a user-centered UX/UI Designer with 4+ years of experience crafting intuitive, scalable digital experiences. I leverage data-driven insights, user research, and design systems to drive engagement, retention, and conversion.
I've led product design across property tech and media, redesigning booking and payment flows and in-app tutorials to reduce drop-offs by up to 40% and improve satisfaction by 25%. I build high-fidelity Figma prototypes, introduce motion design with Lottie and After Effects, and create component-based design systems that shorten development time and ensure consistency.
I regularly run usability testing, heatmaps, and session recordings to turn research into actionable product improvements and mentor cross-functional teams in agile environments. I'm seeking roles where I can continue delivering measurable UX impact through research-driven design and systems thinking.
