Becoming Adeleye...

Hi there,

I am Adeleye, a problem-obsessed people-centered designer.

My journey in product design made me realize that the best way to obtain maximum utility from products, is by improving simple interactions in simple user-focused ways that is profitable to the business.

While in the Georgia aquarium, I realized that the first product designer is the creator

90 Bucks, Endless Horizons

My father told me, "It is not written that you will find what you seek, but you will never find that which you do not seek". This always made me go hard for whatever I wanted, which is why In August of 2020, I took a one-way flight to the US with nothing but $90 in my pocket, a bag filled with shaky dreams, and a full-ride scholarship to my name. From then on, my story has been that of doses of disappointments and avalanche of blessings.

Product and Innovation: a Love story

I got into product design because I enjoy design thinking and innovative problem-solving. My mastery of design made me a top choice in my school for representation in several case and pitch competitions. In total, I have participated in about 12 pitch competitions, Innovation challenges, and hackathons within the past 2 years. In July 2022, I participated in the NBA pitch competition and helped my team create a product that won each of my teammates $10,000. In December 2022 my solution addressing mental health in the US army was selected as one of the top 20 entries, this earned me the opportunity to pitch it to the United States Army.

Designing life, one adventure at a time

"When I'm not immersed in the world of UX design, I'm out seeking adventure. Whether it's the adrenaline rush of car racing or the breathtaking thrill of ziplining, I believe that life's greatest experiences come when we venture beyond our comfort zones. My passion for design and adventure share common threads – both require creativity, strategy, and the courage to explore the unknown. In my world, the principles of design and the spirit of adventure intertwine, inspiring me to approach each project with a fresh perspective and the determination to push boundaries.
