I’ve spent the last 14 years helping organizations of all sizes to deliver meaningful digital products, and experiences to their clients and I still love it! 

I am driven to nurture healthy and collaborative team cultures that ultimately ensure strategic business goals are met and audiences enjoy the very best experiences.

I have worked with businesses in North America, Europe, and Africa using my expertise in Digital Product (UI/UX) Design, Branding, and Marketing Management to provide every person or business I work with, with a unique blend of creative and strategic solutions that help achieve their goals.

I’m an explorer and a helper and I tap into these passions through travel, public speaking, philanthropy, and writing. In my free time, I enjoy listening to podcasts, writing scripts, and unapologetically watching Nollywood movies (trust me, they are addictive!)
