Available to hire
I’m Nakibuuka Mariam Nakitto, a Ugandan creative designer and industrial artist blending African cultural narratives with emerging digital technologies. I hold a first class degree in Industrial and Fine Art (Makerere University) and I love using illustration, animation, and graphic installations to support storytelling, education, and cultural preservation.
I’m especially motivated to build a career in AfroArt-Edutech, where art and technology come together to create learning experiences that are meaningful and accessible. I approach challenges with positivity and adaptability, and I stay accountable in every collaboration—whether I’m designing for marketing, mentoring teams, or supporting content for platforms like TikTok, YouTube, and LinkedIn.
