What I'm about.

I was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria, in a house full of makers — my dad's a furniture designer, my mum's a fashion designer. My curiosity is the thing that's brought me this far, and it started right there. Watching my dad build furniture, I'd stare at a finished piece — the carved edges, the clean joints — and wonder how something that beautiful could be made by hand. I needed to know how it worked. That question never really left me.

That curiosity pulled me into furniture design alongside my dad. It taught me more than woodworking — it taught me how to take a client's idea, even something no one had built before, and think it all the way through: plan it, make the right calls, and bring it to life. That's the exact skill I lean on now as an engineer.

I'm a software engineer, and what I loved about furniture is what I love about code: taking an idea — mine or someone else's — and making it real through planning, good decisions, and building it properly. Over the last few years I've shipped a string of full-stack projects end to end, with a focus on the parts that make software actually reliable: CI/CD, security, and observability. Most recently I led the frontend on NIGEL, a financial-literacy app built for Beyond Encryption.

I'm based in Southampton, just finishing my BSc in Software Engineering at Solent. In my free time you'll find me on the football pitch, deep in a game, or with my headphones on — I listen to a lot of music. The rest goes to friends. And when I'm not doing any of that, I'm usually pulling something apart just to understand how it works — same instinct, different object.

I'm looking to take the next step in my career: to build more ambitious things, bring more ideas to life, and work alongside smart, talented people I can learn from. Purposeful work with a team that cares about doing it well.
