What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in a creative environment that fosters growth.

My background in computer science has equipped me with a unique blend of technical and creative skills, allowing me to excel in various roles, including web design and product design. I have successfully collaborated with clients both in Nigeria and internationally, delivering impactful design solutions that enhance brand identity and drive online engagement.

In my current role as an IT Support Officer and Web Administrator at Business Nest Investment, I have redesigned the company website, resulting in an 89% increase in visibility and a 65% boost in online conversions. My freelance projects further showcase my ability to create responsive designs and effective branding strategies, leading to significant traffic increases for various clients.
