SO FAR
EMMANUEl SECHERE
I’m a multidisciplinary Senior Product Designer with 12+ years’ experience creating user centric, high impact digital products. From 2017–2024, as a senior designer at Grabyo, I led product design on a platform that delivered over 6 billion video views, produced 1.3 million clips in 2022, and generated $6.8 million in revenue in 2024.
I’m passionate about collaboration and thrive in team environments where creativity and open communication drive success. I enjoy mentoring and developing others, helping teams reach their full potential while delivering strategic, scalable design solutions. With roots in graphic design, I combine product thinking with brand storytelling to create purposeful, intuitive experiences that deliver real business impact.
Friendly and charismatic, I’m a team player who believes great design should both look and feel exceptional. Outside of work, I’m the Founder of Art Saved Me, a community interest group supporting underrepresented young people into creative careers.

“Mannie is an exceptional designer with a rare blend of creativity, technical skill, and collaborative spirit. Over the eight years we worked together at Grabyo, I saw firsthand his ability to turn complex ideas into beautiful, functional products.
From his early days designing fast, intuitive features for social video sharing, to leading major redesigns and launching entirely new product lines, Mannie consistently delivered impactful solutions. His work on our live-broadcasting tool and a brand-new editing platform opened new markets for the company projects that required not just design expertise but also leadership, user empathy, and deep collaboration across teams.
Beyond his technical talents, Mannie brings positivity, confidence, and a supportive presence that uplifts the entire team. I can confidently say he would be a valuable asset to any organization.”
