about

I am a Product Designer and Manager boasting over 8 years of valuable experience in product design, development, strategy, and management within diverse sectors such as e-commerce, travel, agritech, and fintech. My approach is characterized by resourcefulness and efficiency, underpinned by a data-driven methodology aimed at creating and managing products that resonate with customers.

My expertise extends across marketing, product design, market research, Agile methodology, and web development. Since 2015, I have actively contributed to the growth of 17 startups across Africa. In this capacity, I've enhanced and created unique products, digitally transforming their processes for heightened efficiency and scale. My professional journey spans full-time roles and consulting engagements with startups and organizations, spanning industries from Hospitality and Agriculture to Fintech and E-Commerce.

I have been involved in guiding and working with startups through various growth stages, aiding in strategy formulation, product development, and achieving product-market fit. Additionally, I've played integral roles in diverse areas of financial services, encompassing product management, e-business, payments, savings, investments, lending, loan analysis, and customer experience.

I've shared insights at various technology and startup events, including an appearance at Social Media Week Lagos. Currently, I lead a team that successfully designed and launched intuitive personal finance products, resulting in a total transaction volume surpassing $82 million in just two years.

My interests lie in Fintech, E-commerce, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Analysis, Startups, Entrepreneurship, Leadership, and Personal Development. Outside the professional realm, I am an avid photographer and occasional saxophonist. During my downtime, you'll find me either exploring art forms or engrossed in a good book.
