Hi, I’m Anthony, a UX designer driven by purpose and shaped by resilience. Born and raised in Nigeria, my journey has been anything but straightforward. From years waiting for U.S. immigration to helping run my mother’s small sales business, to earning a degree in microbiology to make my parents proud, each step has molded my work ethic and perspective. I discovered my passion for design in my final year of college and strengthened my skills during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 lockdown. After relocating to the U.S. in 2022, I worked as a substitute teacher and brand ambassador, experiences that enhanced my empathy, adaptability, and communication skills. To grow and improve my skills in the UX field, I earned a UX Design certificate from CareerFoundry. That experience confirmed what I already believed: design isn’t just about aesthetics, it’s about solving real human problems. Today, I channel my lived experiences into creating meaningful, human-centered solutions that connect deeply with users.
