I have worked in the tech industry for over a decade, drawn by curiosity about how the best experiences are crafted.
Currently, I am a guest lecturer at Amref International University where I teach and coach medical students and professionals on topics like building MVPs, product-market fit, design thinking, and product marketing.
Most recently, I worked at Twiga Foods, a Series C, technology-driven company connecting consumers, vendors, and suppliers across Africa. I joined as a Lead Product Designer, where I led a design team, working on large-scale commerce and operational tools across web, mobile, and internal platforms.
Before that, I was a Product Design Lead at Pesapal, a regulated payments provider operating across East Africa. There, I led and launched multiple B2C, B2B, and platform products within highly constrained financial and regulatory environments.
When I’m away from my product work, you’ll find me
I’m drawn to experiences that balance function and feeling. Whether in products, spaces, or everyday objects, I pay attention to details like light, sound, and material choices, and how they shape how people interact with the world.
Teaching has been a meaningful part of my work. Through guest lectures and workshops, I share practical approaches to building, validating, and launching products, and enjoy helping people gain clarity and confidence in uncertain spaces.
At home, I’m intentional about what I live with. I enjoy curating technology, audio, and simple design elements like plants and lighting to create calm, well-considered spaces that support focus and reflection.
My Superpowers
Clarity in ambiguity
I’m comfortable operating in undefined spaces. When problems are loosely framed or constraints are competing, I help teams find focus, align on what matters, and move forward with confidence.
Collaborative leadership
I work closely with designers, product, engineering, and other stakeholders to foster collaboration, support teams, and create environments where strong ideas surface and decisions are shared.
Intentional design
I care deeply about the why behind design decisions. My work balances user needs, business context, and long-term sustainability, favoring solutions that scale and age well.
