- Born: Born in Nigeria. This is the story of how a boy from Nigeria grew up to design for culture.
- Age 3 to 5: Sci-fi got to me early. James Bond and Spy Kids showed me what a computer could do. Their gadgets are why I got into technology.
- Growing up: Then the universe. The wonder of it made me curious about how everything works.
- School: Engineering was not an option. Issues with my education closed that door, so I studied sociology and anthropology instead.
- University: I found interaction design. I came across it in school and taught it to myself.
- First job: My first job was in fintech. Designing products people can trust with their money. Everything since is built on it.
- Now: Now I design for culture. I moved to Kenya to immerse myself in East Africa, and I am building.
- Next: Next, homes that think. In five to ten years I want to build the internet of things for homes in Africa.
