Behind the designer

Download My

Hello! 👋🏾 I'm Ade, a UX/UI Designer born, living and working in London, England. I completed my Computer Science degree at the University of Sussex.

Growing up, I was always into technology, this might be due to my naturally inquisitive mindset or by the fact my mum is a complete "technophobe" (sorry Mum) who somehow always got the latest gadget.

My passion for technology and the urge to solve problems is why many of my peers, friends and family say I'm the "go to guy" for fixing and solving issues they may have. This has definitely resonated thus far, in my career.

Initially, working at an Estate Agents, I was able to build a rapport with a vast number of clients and really understand their requirements. To now a UX/UI designer, really understanding the user's pain points and goals alongside  the business objectives and how they can work in tandem to provide an astounding user experience.

When I'm not designing you can often find me in the gym (yes indeed, I'm an avid weightlifter), updating my fantasy football team or watching some gripping anime series.

Currently watching: Boku No Hero Academia.

Ade has been a real pioneer for UX within FlightGlobal, implementing a more user centric design process within the business.
Ade could take simple wireframes and turn them into interactive prototypes for usability studies, which allowed us to "test & learn" very quickly without getting worried about throwing failed prototypes away.

On a personal note, Ade is a very thorough & technical designer, has a great eye for detail and always delivered. A real pleasure to work with!

Having worked with Ade when he first started out and watching him progress in the field of UX and Product Design I know one thing about him. He makes things better. On the product and UX side he dives deep, experiments and isn’t afraid to put in the hard work. On the personal / team side, he is definitely someone you want working with you. He brings people together and is the definition of teamwork and collaboration.
