About

I trained as a chemical engineer in Birmingham, took two master’s degrees at Hult across San Francisco and Dubai, led digital transformation in my family’s trading business, and found that what I actually love is building — systems that help people decide, products with craft in them, and businesses that last. The work builds between two places: Abuja, where family and the long-term ambition live, and Leeds, the base for these learning years.

The thread through everything is knowledge — seeking it, keeping it and building with it. The ambition at the far end is manufacturing in Nigeria, approached patiently and learned properly first.
