# Demetris Akinnaso > Product Designer @ Consensus Location: Stockton, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/demetris Hello, I’m a Product Designer who has experience driving impact with progressive organizations, non-profits, and small businesses. As a Product Designer, I believe in creating simple solutions to complex problems. From childhood, I've enjoyed solving problems and UX has given me a pathway to achieve that. As a former Digital Ad Strategist, I developed a clear process for data and the development of internal and client-facing reports. Through the process of developing reports, I found that I enjoyed creating colorful visualizations that showcased the most important data. I am open to learning and discovering new ways to increase my UX design skills and diversify tech. ## Work Experience ### Product Designer @ Consensus Jan 2022 – Present | California, United States ### UX/Product Designer @ TrisDesigns Jan 2021 – Present | California, United States Defining the design strategy by conducting quantitative research and wireframing, creating UI patterns, and user flows to meet user and business needs.
