About Me
I am a lifelong learner with practical experience in technical product management, product design (UI/UX), e-commerce and technical support. I have been privileged to have worked with several startups in Nigeria focused on technology, FinTech, E-commerce and power distribution. This experience has exposed me to the rudiments of running a startup and maximizing value. I also have experience recruiting, managing and training technical talents.
My experience as a product manager has trained me to put the customer first, to use and understand my product and to also collaborate with stakeholders to get their buy-in and to align organizational goals with the product roadmap.
I am available to collaborate on life changing products and opportunities. I am also available for relocation.
