Which one Comes First: Design or Content?
Sooner or later you'll face: Do you have to know what the content is before you start designing?
I'm a passion-driven self-taught UX/UI designer. Always learning and system's thinker. Currently helping to humanize AI @ MoBerries. Previously at Yara International & Smart Course.
In 2017, I started exploring HTML, CSS, and the basics of Javascript. While I could write functional code, I found myself asking : "Why good-looking stuff look good?". Started my design career.
I looked into every design-related resources, experimented with various design tools, devoured countless tutorials all in the pursuit of honing the craft. I got lots of support from the design community.
After my freelance endeavors, I joined Smart Course, a HealthTech/EdTech startup. Here, we were creating a platform connecting caregivers of children with ADHD to leading experts. Then I joined Skedia, a venture aimed at connecting real estate owners with potential property seekers.
Most recently, I had the privilege of collaborating with the dedicated team at Yara Asia & Africa, working on projects designed to help farmers enhance crop yields through eco-friendly practices. This endeavor included the development of features such as USSD for Kenya, the Fertiliser Calculator, and Map My Farm.
With over four years of diverse experience, my passion for learning, analytical mindset, and commitment to user-centric design principles have become key. My solid foundation in branding, user research, design thinking, prototyping and Webflow helped me to thrive in cross-functional teams.
