I am Oragba Njideka Cordelia

From Isuofia in Aguata L.G.A of Anambra state.


This is how I work

I had passion for creativity since I was little.
I learnt and worked for Uzo couture at Onitsha, Anambra State on 2011 before gaining admission to study Food Science and Technology at Federal Polytechnic Oko, Anambra State.

There I met a tutor,mentor, more than a friend to me known as Nkcollection and Precious Appearel

HOW DO YOU KEEP YOUR KNOWLEDGE OF FASHION DESIGN & TECHNIQUES UP TO DATE DESPITE YOUR WORK SCHEDULE & COURSE OF STUDY?

Reading, and lots of it! Also podcasts and videos! I love to use Medium.com. Every morning I get a curated list of articles to read.

I also like to randomly search the internet (Google). Dribbble and Behance as well for inspiration and to get an idea of how other designers are thinking.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE APPS FOR YOUR WORK

I love using Sketch and Invision for light to medium weight work. When I want something more robust I go for Axure. These are all industry standard tools. I also love working with Keynote and am currently learning Principle.

YOU STUDIED FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY.

HOW DID YOU BECOME A DESIGNER WITHOUT GOING TO A DESIGN SCHOOL? WERE YOU SELF-TAUGHT?http://www.techplan.com.ng/2018/06/08/i-am-oragba-njideka-cordelia-a-designer-at-njdeliafashionhome-and-this-is-how-i-work/
