I'm Bolu — a product designer who sometimes codes , working out of Lagos.
I design software end-to-end — from the first messy research question to production-ready components sitting in a live codebase. 6 years of shipping across fintech, Web3, healthcare and marketplaces, mostly as the person accountable for whether the thing actually works.
I lean on code and AI-assisted workflows to move faster and test ideas in the real product, not just the prototype. But the goal is always the same — building good software that earns people's trust.
What I'm brought in to design.
0→1 Product Strategy
Founding-team design leadership that takes a product from a blank page to a working business — research, positioning, and roadmap, not just screens.
Design Systems & Scale
Systems built to outlast a single project — token-driven, accessible from day one, and built so other teams can move faster on top of them.
Cross-functional Leadership
Partnering with engineering, product, and execs to turn research into a prioritized roadmap — and defending the user when tradeoffs get hard.
Design-to-code Execution
Shipping into a live codebase, not just a handoff doc — using code and AI-assisted workflows to close the gap between design intent and what ships.
Teams I've designed with.
A designer who codes, sometimes.
I'm a designer who actually ships. When a prototype isn't enough, I'll build the thing — production components, Bubble logic, AI-assisted front and back end. Here's where that shows up.
Songs that tell you who I am.
A design portfolio is only half the picture. Here are the songs that tell you the rest — what I build to, think to, and generally am.
