Arinze Clinton

A Motion Designer currently surviving Lagos, Nigeria.
I'm available for full-time roles, short & long term contract projects and consultations.

Bio

I believe that good design strikes the perfect balance between form and function - it's like hitting a sweet spot that makes everything just work. In my work I pursue simplicity, scalability and joy by thinking long term and crafting small details that build an emotional connection; all of these form the core beliefs of my design process.

In my ex–lives, I worked with a group of diverse designers to create the product experiences and motion graphic assets for social media marketing efforts for Kuda Bank, the leading challenger bank in Africa. Later on, I joined TeamApt (now Moniepoint) and played a vital role in improving Monnify a way for merchants to accept payments throughout Nigeria and Africa.

Additionally, I explored the crypto industry, working with companies like Patricia and Yellowcard because I found it fascinating and fast-growing.

Curiosity led me to become a generalist, meaning I can do lots of things well from ideation to launch. I find joy in creating things and pushing my creative boundaries at all times.

When I'm not designing, you'll find me gaming, reading (lately articles more than books), hanging out with friends, or watching movies or documentaries. Hopefully, this year I can add traveling and swimming to the list.
