bio

I am interested in story telling and publishing, marketing, product development, project management, media, language and communication, brand and corporate innovation and the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. I hold certificates in fashion marketing and media from the University of Leeds and Fiction Writing from The Open University UK and I'm currently pursuing a degree in Linguistics at Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Nigeria. In November 2017, I was selected to deliver a presentation at the British Council’s 12th International Language and Development Conference held in Dakar Senegal and was a speaker at the African Association for the Study of Religions (AASR) conference in conjunction with the University of Zambia and Justo Mwale University, Lusaka Zambia, on the theme 'Revisiting Religion, Politics and the state in Africa and the African Diaspora' in Zambia. Twice consecutively, from 2019 to 2020, the innovation team I founded has represented Nigeria at the international L'oreal Brandstorm Innovation competition held annually in Paris France and in 2019 the team represented Nigeria at the HILTI IT competition held in Malaysia. In 2018 the team was a finalist at the Unilever Ideatrophy competition held in Lagos Nigeria. In 2019, I was a finalist of one of the most notable business competitions in Nigeria, Kickstart Nigeria organized by beverage giant, International Breweries Plc, becoming the youngest individual and only undergraduate student to achieve this till date.
