My Story
I currently lead the product and design team at Common Identity – a digital identity company using technology and software to build frontier solutions in identity and access management.
I started my journey into tech sometime in 2012 when I first created a blog to publish my short stories and shared them with everyone I knew.
With the knowledge I gained from creating my blog, I went ahead to start designing websites and brand identities for businesses in my community and got really good at it. Since then I’ve continuously built on my design skill sets, and I’ve had the opportunity to work with wonderful people on very exciting ideas!
I don’t restrict myself to design though. The blend of design, business, and strategy is where I feel I excel. Design should translate into economic value for the products or services of your business.
I am well-versed in product management with expertise in leading product development and strategy. I am an excellent communicator and listener with keen organisational skills, which allows me to effectively smoothen a team’s dynamics and development process.
The intersection of my design and product management skills has positioned me to provide maximum value to the teams and ideas I work on.
