I’m a Product Designer who loves turning complex challenges into clear, intuitive experience. With a background in Statistics, I combine data, empathy, and creativity to craft products that people don’t just use, but genuinely enjoy.
My work spans industries like HealthTech, Information Tech, Mobility, and both B2B and B2C SaaS, where I’ve helped create user-centered designs that spark real business impact and meaningful experiences.
Most recently, I worked at Sidekick Health in Hamburg,collaborating with cross-functional teams to optimize user experiences, streamline internal tools, and boost engagement and conversion across our products.
Before that, I was at Youverify, where I led the design of compliance and no code products like YouverifyOS and vForms, helping banks and startups across Africa simplify identity verification and fraud prevention.
Beyond my product work, I’m passionate about helping other designers grow. Through mentoring, workshops, writing, and sharing practical design resources, I support emerging designers as they build their skills, portfolios, and careers.

Jecinta is a pleasure to work with, she's outcome-driven and quick to understand the 'Why' behind any task or challenge.
She's able to explore ideas well and explain the reasoning behind her design and UX decisions.

Beyond my day-to-day work, I’m deeply invested in making the design world more inclusive and supportive. I mentor designers at various levels with the skillset and clarity to advance in their career.
I actively contribute to the global design community by creating and sharing open-source resources in the Figma Community which have accumulated 16k+ downloads and counting that have empowered designers to work more efficiently and create designs that drive meaningful impact.
Sometimes, you’ll catch me on google meet or zoom sharing my expertise through speaking engagements at design and technology events hosted by tech platforms contributing to industry-wide conversations and inspiring both emerging and established professionals.
And when I’m not doing all this? You’ll probably find me hosting tech community events or binge-watching Netflix series (with Breaking Bad forever holding the crown as my all-time favorite 🏆).
