My background is a trained engineer and Digital Marketeer. It has given me a bias to analytical thinking and a keen sense of empathy for the end users.
While working for a marketing agency as a Conversion Rate Optimisation consultant, I was first introduced to Design Thinking framework and principles. I found this very interesting and after a bit of research decided to combine my analytical thinking and marketing skills with design thinking to become a User Experience Designer.
I love to create beautiful things and experiences which now extends to creating beautiful websites and experiences for people.
I have been lucky to have opportunities to work in different industries as a traditional marketeer and then a digital marketeer. I worked with companies that manufactured batteries, that developed a Facial Recognition software, that developed a SaaS product for restaurants, and finally a marketing agency.
My career has three distinct phases.
