Hello,
I'm Peter Umeh

Self Taught UI/UX Designer

Designer with a passion for creating thoughtful, user-centered digital experiences that solve real-world problems.

I believe in the power of design

I believe in the power of design to inspire action, spark change, and elevate experiences. Whether I’m working solo or embedded in a product team, I bring curiosity, clarity, and craft to every project I touch.

I’m a Product Designer who is passionate about solving real problems that make a meaningful impact on people’s lives and also profit to businesses.

I’ve done this over the last 7 years while working with a diverse range of companies; from Y-combinator startups to even established orgs across various sectors where I have contributed to the growth of Visual and Digital designs of products with small and large teams.

I mentor designers at Happy Designers

Happy Designers is a whatsapp group I created and the second whatsapp design community I have had since 2021. I have mentored a total of 600 Junior Designers from Nigeria, Kenya, USA, South Africa, Egypt and Ghana

Speaking & Interviews

I’ve been lucky enough to be invited to speak with some great folks at different platforms. If you’d like me to be a guest on your podcast, be a speaker at your design academy, space you can send me an email.

Here are 4 philosophies you can always expect from me

User-Centered, Story-Driven Design

I prioritize user experience by understanding the story behind the user’s needs.

“Design should never just look good—it should feel like it understands you.”

Clarity Through Simplicity

My interfaces are intuitive, with clear structure, clean layouts, and purposeful whitespace. You avoid clutter, focusing on what matters most to the user at each moment.
“If a design makes people think too hard, it’s not finished.”

Design With Empathy & Context

Coming from a self-taught background in Nigeria, your design sensibility is deeply rooted in empathy. =
“People first, pixels later.”

Curious Mind

For me it’s never design for design’s sake. it’s always purposeful innovation to solve a real problem.

I experiment with intention. constantly learning, testing, and evolving ideas to find fresh, effective solutions.
