About Me

I started coding at age 10, fueled by curiosity and a drive to build. Over the years, I've transformed that passion into professional expertise with 7+ years of hands-on experience in development and product building.

I've collaborated with global innovators like the Stellar Development Foundation and actively contribute to the Solana Ecosystem. As an active member of the Superteam developer community, I've led developer communities and mentored aspiring builders on how to learn and grow on Solana. I've also helped build custom solutions that promoted Superteam Nigeria events like Solana Summit Africa 2025.
