Hi! I'm Busayo! Woman of God, content designer, storyteller, and agency owner from the golden state of California.

One of my core values is accessibility. I believe everyone should have access to technology, information, and ideas and I bring this forth into everything I do.

Having led high impact user experiences for brands like eBay, Coinbase, Wells Fargo, Champion, and Intuitive, I use my skills and experience to help elevate businesses with a strategy-led approach.

When I'm not crafting impactful user experiences, I love to go out and eat things like Korean BBQ with my hubby, spend time with family, travel to places like Barcelona, as well as try new things and explore my city.

Fun fact: I'm multilingual in English and Spanish and I even used to live in Spain.
