About me
One word I would use to describe myself would be "Multipotentialite". I am a UX designer based in Accra, Ghana with a unique experience at building solutions with empathy. As a young creative learner, I look to build skills in understanding problems and communicating ideas. I am a well-rounded teamwork enthusiast who is looking for paid opportunities and challenges in UX/UI and Digital Product Design. I started my career developing my communication ability as a project assistant for British Council learning about people. I served in the corporate agriculture industry for a year. After that year, I collated my experiences and skills to transition my career into the tech industry. Currently, I am a self-taught designer mentored by communities, a front-end developer passionate about open-source and creative writer hoping to tell stories along my journey.
