Curiosity is part of how I work.
I'm based in Lagos and hold a B.Tech in Physics (Electronics) from the Federal University of Technology, Akure. I care about software that's genuinely useful, teams that communicate clearly, and opportunities to help people grow. My background in engineering and education shapes the way I approach both products and people.
