Hey, I'm John! 👋

For over 13+ years, I have worked as a UX/Product designer, solving user and business problems specifically for consumer-facing digital products.

I currently hold the position of senior UX designer at Amazon, where I spearhead the entire design process for new product initiatives in the Payments Product org. My role involves close collaboration with top-tier designers, product managers and software engineers, resulting in the creation of exceptional products used by billions of customers globally.

Before Amazon, I worked at Booking.com in Amsterdam on the connected trip experience project; at Etisalat [Nigeria], I led the design and development of a self-service product; at Konga.com, I worked with a team of designers and marketing experts to design and launch great marketing campaigns, and at eTranzact, where I started my career, I worked on similar design projects.

I have interviewed multiple times with top tech companies, and I have landed job offers and gotten rejected instantly in some cases; while at it, I have mastered the process and learned a lot, and I want to teach you.

I'm a certified User Experience Specialist with AKENDI UK, a Certified Design Sprint Facilitator and a Workshopper with AJ&Smart.

When I'm not designing or thinking about products, I'm on my bike discovering new cycling pathways or sharing memes with friends via Instagram DMs😊.
