About Me
TL:DR
I am a builder who solves complex problems. My journey has given me a blend of skills in product management, design, marketing, and business operations, making me a generalist by experience and a specialist in execution.
I founded two companies to solve problems I faced. The first, Devcenter , is now the second-largest developer community in Sub-Saharan Africa. The second, Beam, is a B2B SaaS platform that helps managers keep their teams aligned.
As a consultant, I've led product development for major organisations. I spearheaded an AI-driven overhaul of claims processing for a loss-adjusting firm, boosting operational efficiency by 75%. I've also managed the team that rebuilt a FinTech's business banking app, led product for a new digital bank, and developed a volunteering platform used by over 100,000 people for the African Union.
My career started in design and marketing strategy. I worked at agencies where I launched campaigns for major brands like Coca-Cola, MTN, and Globacom across television, radio, and digital channels.
I hold a BSc. in Accounting and an MSc. in Marketing Strategy. However, I consider my most important education to be the hands-on experience of leading teams, building companies, and shipping products.

How I got here
Founder
Beam (2023)
I founded Beam, a B2B SaaS productivity platform, to solve a problem I faced: maintaining team alignment and focus as a company grows. Beam helps managers automate check-ins and track progress, giving them clarity on goals and team morale. We currently have over 380 workspace sign-ups and are continuously learning from our users. As founder, I lead the product vision, strategy, and team.Devcenter (2018)
I started Devcenter because I couldn't find developers in Nigeria for a project. I built a community to connect talent with opportunity. Today, it's the second-largest developer community in Sub-Saharan Africa, with over 23,000 members. We also launched Gigson, a jobs platform that has helped over 5,000 developers find work. I led the company, managed investors, and drove the product roadmap.
