You can call me Jemima, but my friends call me Dara.
I’m a product designer based in Lagos, currently working at Paystack (opens in a new tab)
I hold the CPACC credential (opens in a new tab) from the International Association of Accessibility Professionals—the formal expression of a conviction already built into my work, long before I earned it. Previously at Toptal (opens in a new tab) and Wiicreate (opens in a new tab)
I grew up knowing that wahala no dey finish — problems are endless. If I can ease one of them, I’d consider that a good day’s work. Outside work, I take photos of people and places I want to remember, watch an ungodly amount of cooking shows, and cook for the people I love.
I keep notes here. I think of them as tells — the move in poker that gives you away. These are mine: the arguments I write to find out what I actually think.
