Hi, my name is Eniola Abioye

I help UX Researchers improve their research practice. Whether you’re seasoned and looking to level up or a new researcher looking to get your bearings in UX, I can help you focus and apply your skillset.

I’ve always been a people person and I’ve also always been a bit of a science nerd so in high school, I put two and two together and decided the career that made the most sense for me was to be a doctor. Super original! So I picked Integrative Biology as my major. Then I got to college and realized that doctors don’t always get a chance to do much of the people part. I figured out pretty quickly that that wasn’t what I wanted to do. I still loved biology so I earned my degree in it and opted to figure out the rest later.

Fast forward to graduation, I began my career in UX working with a market and user research firm in the pharma and biotechnology space. I chose it because I was really interested in biotech and people. I was agency side, so I had the chance to work with tons of companies across dozens of therapy areas like Hepatitis, Pseudobulbar Affect and various forms of cancer.

I spoke with patients, doctors, caregivers and often these conversations were based on their journeys living with or treating conditions. So this was my introduction to UX, talking to many different types of people about some of the most intimate topics any of us can imagine. I learned really quickly that at the baseline of doing UXR, was the understanding that I am tasked with holding space.

Now, I am a UX Researcher at Meta and speak to all different types of users their experience on the platform. I take an agile approach and often employ Rapid Iterative Testing and Evaluation. I am innately curious, a self-starter, adaptable and communicative with a knack for storytelling.

My approach

As a coach, my job is to help you visualize your goals and put them down on paper. I’ll guide you through making short-term and long-term SMART goals and then build a strategic plan to achieve them. We’ll work together virtually and in between sessions, you’ll have access to me for any questions that come up along the way.

Resume Revamp

When working with new clients, I always begin by revamping your resume. It’s important to keep your work experience up to date as your showcase your growing skillset. I’ll make sure that your impact on the organizations that you have been a part of is clear and compelling.

Portfolio Makeover

Whether you have a working portfolio or need to create one, I’ll hope you document your case studies in ways that are engaging and innovative. Your portfolio will give future employers a preview into how you approach research and loop in your key stakeholders.

“From the beginning with tailoring my resume, really getting down to what is UXR and how my current skills could be transferrable, the job template to help keep myself organized and accountable with what jobs I was applying to and the stage I was at, and the email guide to networking were game changers and I believe that’s what put me in a good position with the job I secured. Also each session was a learning
session that helped prepare for the next step in making the change in industries. I also like that fact the sessions was in a logical order which I feel like prepared me even more."
