Hi there!

I'm Konnie, a UX designer with a background in science

From a very young age I knew I liked two things: learning as many things as I could about the world around me and solving problems.

My curiosity and analytical brain (and perhaps CSI to some extend 👀) brought me into a literal lab in the UK, creating chemical solutions and studying the behaviour of materials and substances. Albeit an interesting job, I felt there was still something missing. My interest in the arts and a little poking from friends led me to Udacity’s UX Design Nanodegree.

And it really felt like the missing piece of the puzzle.

Since 2022, when I got my first UX design role at Inviqa, I have been involved in various projects doing everything from research to UI to prototyping. My analytical brain is well suited to research and the more strategic aspects of the job, whereas my more creative qualities come really handy when it comes to UI.

I have also been involved in Inviqa's Community of Practice, sharing knowledge with my team on various topics such as Active listening and Usability testing.

Lastly, I am Inviqa's DE&I ambassador in the Havas village and a strong advocate for accessibility; I am regularly organising talks with individuals with disabilities for the agency or educating my team through talks on accessible design.

I am always open to interesting opportunities in teams that solve complex, exciting problems. If this is you, and you find any of these interesting, you can find me here.
