I drive Design Impact Hands on and at Scale

I'm a global design leader who drives results both as a hands-on designer and team leader, partnering with remote teams to craft usable, beautiful, and impactful experiences.

I’ve led design across some of the world’s most trusted fintech, healthtech, and data companies — from building AI driven platforms for educators, to delivering complex election monitoring systems, to designing the MVP of Africa’s foremost economic data and insights product, to scaling an healthtech solution for the largest supply chain in Africa, and currently scaling health insurance across emerging markets. Today, I collaborate remotely with global teams to deliver products that are usable, scalable, and impactful.

As Director of Design at Reliance Health, I lead a distributed team shaping health experiences for users across Africa and Asia. Previously, I’ve led product design efforts at Branch International, Astral, Field Intelligence, SimplifiedIQ, Seamfix and Stears, building products, workflows and tools that deliver real results for both users and businesses. My leadership style is grounded in communication, autonomy, collaboration, and measurable impact — helping teams ship faster and with greater confidence.
