What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and growth, focusing on user-centered design.

As a Lead User Researcher at Triumf Health, I successfully conducted market research that revealed an 80% success probability for the company's entry into the Kenyan market. This was driven by the significant opportunity created by limited competition. I also developed and integrated emotional intelligence questions into a mini game aimed at enhancing education for children aged 7-12, filling existing gaps in the market.

My experience as a Webmaster at @iLabAfrica allowed me to leverage WordPress to ensure the website was fully updated and relevant. Collaborating with multiple departments, I integrated content that resulted in a user-friendly experience. My educational background in Business Information Technology from Strathmore University, combined with specialized training in application programming and interaction design, equips me with a robust skill set to tackle complex challenges in user experience and technology.
