About Olawale
My name is Olawale Atanda, and I'm a Product Designer passionate about crafting impactful experiences. I began my journey by replicating designs, but today I create innovative solutions that serve both local and international markets.
Over the years, I've built expertise across diverse sectors; E-commerce, Healthcare, Finance, Fashion, AI, SaaS, Education, designing for both B2B and B2C products. What excites me most about design is bridging the gap between user needs and business goals: solving real problems for people while driving smart outcomes for companies.
My journey into the creative space
Before I became a Product Designer, I was a Customer Representative officer at a bank where I assisted a lot of customers in solving transaction and loan issues. I learnt how to communicate effectively and I also gained the trust of customers.
