What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated User Experience Designer with over four years of experience in user research, application design, and usability testing.

At 4-Sure Technology Solutions, I led a user research study that transformed a manual management process into a seamless digital experience, significantly reducing administrative burdens for over 3,000 service providers.
My work at XM design & consulting has further honed my skills in providing comprehensive design services to startups and SMEs. I collaborate closely with clients to validate ideas, design landing pages, and develop effective social media strategies. My commitment to inclusivity is evident in my role as a SASL interpreter, where I have improved accessibility for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities. I am passionate about creating user-centric designs that not only meet business goals but also enhance customer satisfaction.
