I'm Wanjiru Nganga, an experienced product designer and digital marketer with a knack for creating user-centered solutions and driving strategic online growth. I understand the importance of conducting thorough user research, including interviews, surveys, and usability testing, to uncover pain points, behaviors, and needs. Leading to design improvements that increase user satisfaction scores by 20-30%.

With a background in both design and marketing, I thrive on turning ideas into impactful products and engaging digital experiences. Studies show that improved UX can boost customer retention by 5%, which, when combined with strategic marketing efforts, can result in up to a 95% increase in customer lifetime value.

My journey has been fuelled by creativity, collaboration, and a constant desire to learn. Growing up, I lived in a range of different countries in Africa and across North America, my global exposure fostered a desire to be a part of an inclusive community.
