Hi, I'm Yinka; a product designer with over 3 years experience of solving problems with user centric design.

Currently living in Ontario, Canada and solving meaningful payment challenges at operapay.com

About Me

As a product designer, the core of my work involves helping my team understand complex challenges through research, exploring ideas based on actionable insights and crafting data-informed designs that solve customer problems while adding value to business.

I am highly customer focused. I believe that one needs to think about the user needs before making any design decision.

When I'm not knee-deep in some design work, I write and speak about design.

I started writing in 2019 as a way to document my learnings and share them with others. What I love most about writing is that it allows me to share encouraging observations or experiences I've had throughout my career.

Always happy to chat
