How I work
Product strategy & interaction design
Find the right problem, then make the next action clear.
Complex workflows & information architecture
Make the relationships between people, information and tasks understandable.
Design systems
Build patterns that hold up across products, teams and changing content.
Research & product discovery
Understand the people and constraints behind the brief.
Code-based prototyping
Use working interfaces to answer questions a static screen cannot.
Design × engineering
Bring implementation, maintenance and operations into design decisions.
In good company
“Michael is also a good communicator and cares about other team members’ feedback, which is a critical quality in a remote working environment.”
A little about me
I’m most useful when
the problem is still messy.
I’m Michael, a product designer based in Lagos. For fourteen years I’ve worked across consumer software, fintech, healthcare, government services and emerging technology. I tend to gravitate toward complicated products where the problem isn’t completely understood yet.
More recently, I’ve moved closer to engineering and implementation, using code, systems and automation alongside traditional product design. I’m currently building MuviDB, a discovery platform for African film.
