Hi, I’m Jecinta.
User-first product designer turning complex ideas into clear, usable, and impactful digital experiences..

I’m a Product Designer who loves turning complex challenges into “Ah, that actually makes sense!” digital experiences. 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.

I currently lead design 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.

Jecinta is a pleasure to work with, she's outcome-driven and quick to understand the 'Why' behind any task or challenge.

Outside of work, I Volunteer as a mentor, share valuable resources and discover new music.

Outside of work, I Volunteer as a mentor, share valuable resources and discover new music.

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 1.5k+ downloads and counting that have empowered designers to work more efficiently and create designs that drive meaningful impact.


Sometimes, you’ll catch me on stage or zoom sharing my expertise through public 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 🏆).
