Nia means purpose in Swahili 🌼

Staying true to my name, I seek purpose and craft in everything I do.

As a Visual UX Designer and with over 6 years of experience, I’m driven by the full end-to-end process — from sitting with real people to uncover their core needs, to designing the scalable solutions and design systems that solve them.

With a dual background in Psychology and Digital Media Studies (HCI), I’ve learned that the most impactful products are the ones that truly listen and empathize with people.

Having designed for thousands of users in the Fintech and Healthcare sectors, I’ve mastered the art of translating complex business requirements into intuitive, accessible experiences.

I’m a firm advocate for the user’s vantage point, leading with care and a systems-thinking mindset to ensure every design decision is intentional.

Beyond the Screen

When I’m not designing, you can find me painting, tending to my container garden (growing everything from collards to echinacea), or wandering the aisles of a book store.

I’ve recently started knitting, and I’m obsessed with creating handmade and intentional garments for myself and my children.
