UX Designer

HNG Tech

As a UX Design Intern, I had the opportunity to immerse myself in a fast-paced, startup-like environment where I contributed across the full spectrum of the design process. I designed user-centered interfaces for both mobile and web applications, ensuring they were intuitive and visually appealing. My work included creating interactive prototypes and micro-interactions in Figma to enhance the user experience and drive engagement.

I collaborated closely with product managers and developers, bridging the gap between design and development to ensure that our vision was effectively implemented. My role involved conducting user research, translating insights into wireframes, and iterating on designs based on feedback and testing.

This hands-on experience not only strengthened my technical skills in UI/UX design, prototyping, and interaction design but also honed my ability to thrive in an agile and collaborative environment. I'm excited to bring this expertise to new challenges in the UX/UI design field.

Working on a website project for a friend.

Initially recorded to make it a YT video, ended up making a time-lapse.
The design is coming together nicely.

Would you like to see a YouTube tutorial/breakdown on it?

Design Engineer | Certified Webflow Developer | Penultimate Computer Science Student @University of Chester

My first hackathon was a W!

Brought home the MLH prize for the best use of Snowflake API.

Lots of lessons learnt, worked with an incredible team.
I'm working a full-fledged article, coming soon.

I also documented the entire experience as well (YT video when?)

Excited to have worked with Yui Fan, Hector Pearson & Vasilii Zubarev.

More updates on my coding journey to come.

Stay updated y'all -  Abdussalam Popoola

Always love watching a design come to life!

Here's the process of how i created the clone shot with Affinity.

Snippets from hackathon project the team and I built in 24 hours.

This flow shows how a student can redeem credits for vouchers that work with small businesses in Manchester.

The idea is to help students save money from purchases they already make, like rent, lifestyle and feeding.

Paying rent earns you credits → enough credits earn you vouchers → vouchers earn you discounts → discounts help you save money.

I still have the pitch deck we used to pitch the idea.
I bet it's got potential for Housr - wink ;)

Built this with Hector Pearson, Vasilii Zubarev, Yui Fan & Abdussalam Popoola (me)

Yesterday was a blast!

My 2nd hackathon ever; hosted by Accelerate ME.
We worked on the Lovable challenge to bring an idea to life in 6hrs.

The team and I built a peer-to-peer mentoring platform for students to skill up fast and get hired. Heard we got 4th place btw.

Overall it was a great experience working with Ibad Ali, Surya Ramakrishnan & Dithik on this.

Oliver Ulvebne mentioned we should apply for Accelerate ME Cohort 12.
I'll do that :)

Also huge shout out to the winners & the new friends i made; Elizabeth Fenwick. Fidel Ehirim, Yousuf RizwanOsama Alnajar, Peace Kiariki, Rachael Lam and many more...

I'm excited to see us all blossom beyond our wildest dreams.
Cheers!

PS. Stay tuned for updates on the side-projects i'm building

I hope you find it valuable.

My first hackathon in London!

I was in c++ class at 9am when I found out there was a hackathon hosted by Encode Club.

I immediately applied and booked a train to London.

Being a designer that aims to be as technical as possible, there’s so much I don’t know about Web3 and smart contracts.

So, there’s a lot of soaking up to do this weekend.

Here’s to learning something 🥂

I need to make friends and get going.
Stay tuned for hackathon updates.

Hello Internet,

I'm building an invoice creation software.
Here's a quick demo on how it works: (feedbacks are appreciated)

HACKATHON UPDATE: I couldn't join a cool team. 

So i'm going solo.

What if failure could mean something different on our journey to mastery?

Here are a few tips on optimising your LinkedIn profile for better opportunities.

Head of marketing and sales development, orchestrating a full demand generation program.

My content marketing and SEO program have been shockingly successful, resulting in the total dominance of all key search results for terms in our category.

I have implemented a successful, repeatable process for generating leads—both inbound and outbound—getting them sales ready, and connecting them with salespeople to ultimately become a customer.

See my job at Thunder prior to this promotion for some idea of what I'm up to.

Front End Supervisor

Most creators, coaches, consultants, and solo business owners know AI is powerful — but they’re trying to learn it by wading through hype, half-truths, and overly technical tutorials built for engineers, not entrepreneurs.

And that's a problem because those flashy demos and one-size-fits-all prompts ignore what actually matters: practical, repeatable business outcomes. They don’t teach you how to think with AI... they just throw more tools at you.

Because of that, people end up feeling overwhelmed, unsure, or worse: they waste hours tinkering without anything meaningful to show for it. AI becomes another shiny object instead of the time-saving, clarity-creating tool it could be.

Which means you stay stuck in the loop of knowing AI should help your business, but not knowing how to make it stick, missing out on the dozens of small daily wins that could actually move the needle.

On the other hand, what I do is cut through the noise and show you exactly how to use AI in ways that fit your business, your brain, and your bandwidth.

I give you high-leverage prompts, real frameworks, and live walkthroughs that make it easy to start using AI — not just understanding it — whether that’s creating content, refining offers, or automating tasks...

So that you build AI into your actual workflow in small but mighty ways that save time, spark clarity, and support the work you’re already doing — not add more complexity to it.

As a result, you become the kind of business owner or operator who’s not just keeping up with AI — you’re benefiting from it. Quietly outpacing others not with gimmicks, but with smarter systems, clearer messaging, and more momentum — powered by real-world AI you can actually trust to help with your most important work.
