About
“My background is as a Technical product designer primarily within the Edtech industry; however, nowadays I am primarily focused on my AI Product engineering and automated systems agency DI Dreamlabs.
The reason I decided to become a mentor is that I enjoy helping others as much as I can. I have also served as a lead instructor for multiple courses, and I find it really rewarding to see students progressing. It also allows me to network and meet talent I can use for contracted work through my agency.”

Why UX?
“My background is originally in graphic design. I really enjoyed it, but I simply wasn’t as talented and realised that what I actually enjoyed more was solving problems creatively and designing and building the solutions.
The person who helped me the most is one of my current business partners, Suj. He allowed me to intern with Digital Influx Academy as a social media content designer and allowed me to take their UX courses and receive mentorship directly from their lead UX Designers in exchange for serving as a teaching assistant in the lessons. This allowed me to earn my UX qualifications, but what really helped me the most was when I had the opportunity to take over my former mentor’s role as Lead Product Designer and lead and teach their UX course at the Capital City College (one of London’s most well-known colleges).
Suj mentored me personally in terms of managing a business, and I wouldn’t be a founder or where I am today if it wasn’t for him. I’m extremely grateful.”
What advice do you have for future mentees and UX designers?
“Never stop learning, continue adapting and above everything else, learn how to make yourself into an undeniable business asset that is high return on investment, not a “nice to have”.
