My Story

Aspiring Software Engineer • Product Designer

I was born in Dallas but raised in Nigeria, where I spent six years in boarding school. Later, I moved to the UK for two more years of school—and that’s where I started learning Python. At first, programming didn’t come easy. I struggled with the basics. But pushing through that challenge sparked something in me. I got curious, and that curiosity led me to explore more languages, tools, and design workflows.

Now, I’m a Computer Science student at Emory University with a minor in Economics. I focus on building thoughtful, user-centered products—bringing ideas to life through a mix of design and development tools like Figma, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python.

Outside of tech, I’m interested in how larger systems work, especially in macroeconomics. I also find creative energy in culture, basketball, soccer, fashion, and travel. My portfolio reflects not just what I’ve learned, but how I think—and what I’m working toward.
