Human-Centered Designer with a Passion for User Research and UI/UX Design
Through my work and projects, I utilize an iterative problem-solving process that keeps empathy for the user at the forefront. As a product designer, I have experience in all aspects of designing a new product or sevice, starting with user research and defining the problem to a final product. However, my passion lies in conducting user research and designing interactions. Conducting user research in a way that combines qualitative techniques, such as ethnographic research, with quantitative methods, like conducting surveys and collecting data, allows me to obtain a deep understanding of user behaviors and needs. This combination provides a great opportunity to delve deeper and get to the core of a problem. After defining a problem, I also enjoy ideating around innovative solutions and ultimately designing the interface and experience that a user will have with a new product or service. Rapidly prototyping and testing various interactions and experiences whether they are phsyical, digital, or a service challenges and motivates me. My experiences and passions have allowed me to create robust, human-centered solutions to complex and vague problems. My goal is to always create alignment with the user and final solution to ensure successful user experiences.
I have undertaken a variety of projects ranging from redesigning medical devices to encouraging children to be more active to redesigning the healthcare system in Kenya. My interest and passion lies within the healthcare space and I am aiming to create innovative products and services that disrupt this industry. A lot of these projects stemmed from a desire to make something of value that benefits the community around me. However, I have also worked on some fun projects like redesigning and making a spice kit.
If you are interested in learning more about these or any of my other projects that are in progress, please feel free to reach out to me! I am always excited to learn and interact with people from different backgrounds.
