My Work: The Long Story, Short

Entrepreneur

Engineering

Emerging Leader

I love building things from scratch So from working in the banking, engineering and construction sectors,to bringing my family's business from the Niger Delta to the capital city Abuja, I have been able to leverage on my vast experiences in these sectors and organizations , and also, look for unique ways to solve problems around me turning them into community empowering opportunities.

My late dad-who was a brilliant electrical engineer-always told me that engineers are first and foremost, problem solvers. My strong analytical and problem skills are all thanks to an extensive education and training in electrical, electronics and computer engineering giving me the ability to always look for innovative ways to make existing systerms and processes simpler and more efficient.

One of my course mates at Harvard once asked me if I ever considered relocating to the states after my on going masters degree and my answer was no. I do not mind travelling for education or work experiences abroad but I firmly believe that there are so many opportunities in Africa, particularly Nigeria, hence my passion and commitment towards being afro-centric in all my professional and career endeavours.

Excellent customer service will always be one of the critical competitive advantages for any organization. And so while working as a 'front line officer' for one of the biggest banks in Africa, whose main business objective is exceptional service delivery, I learnt to have a keen sense of empathy, making customers feel truly listened to and not simply heard.
