NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a UX Designer with an MBBS background, bringing a research-minded, detail-focused approach to design. I’ve built core modules and user flows for education and admin-heavy systems, shaping how students and schools manage student records and academic data.
In leadership, I served as Chapter President at the Christian Medical and Dental Association (CMDA) Ahmadu Bello University Chapter, where I set annual goals and coordinated academic, spiritual, and professional development programs. I also planned and led the successful execution of the CMDA Nigeria Northern Zonal Prayer and Missions Conference (NZPMC) 2025, hosting over 500 delegates while coordinating logistics, speakers, programs, and cross-chapter participation.
Design-wise, I’ve worked end-to-end—from wireframes and design mockups to iterative improvements—after collaborating with a senior designer on UI/UX flows for a real estate management system. I also led community meetups with Friends of Figma to connect early-career designers with mentors and industry professionals, strengthening my ability to communicate, collaborate, and ship.
