What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead cross‑functional teams using Agile methods, improve operational workflows, and deliver customer‑focused digital products with clear growth and learning opportunities.

I’m a detail-oriented UI Designer with a strong foundation in creating user-centric, visually compelling digital experiences. With certifications in IBM & Google UX Design, Product Design, and User Experience Design Fundamentals, I design intuitive and accessible interfaces that balance user needs and business goals.

Before transitioning fully into UI design, I spent years building a successful career in professional CV/Resume writing, Cover Letter Writing and LinkedIn Profile Optimization, helping clients across the UK and US secure roles across industries. This experience strengthened my user research, client engagement, and problem-solving skills, enabling me to translate professional goals and user needs into actionable solutions.

Skilled in tools like Figma, prototyping, and user experience research, I approach design with a strategic mindset and a clear understanding of behavioural trends. My Bachelor’s degree in Sociology provides a strong sense of human behaviour, which informs how I create empathetic and intuitive design solutions.

I’m passionate about leveraging design and research to solve problems, simplify complexity, and deliver innovative solutions that truly connect with users.
