I build bespoke web platforms for PSG by day, mentor Microverse devs by night, and split my learning between a BSc from Imo State University and ongoing coursework at Open Source Society University. Fleet systems, fintech dashboards, and community-led products are my happy place.

Journey

How I arrived here

Every corner of the space carries a chapter. From messy Procter & Gamble war rooms to calm product leadership pods.

2013 – 2017

Imo State University Foundations

Earned my BSc in Computer Science at IMSU, spending late nights in the lab mixing algorithms with volleyball practice. That curiosity for building software never left.

Microverse & Remote Mastery

Joined Microverse to immerse myself in remote-first full-stack work. Paired daily with developers worldwide while mastering React, Redux, Ruby, Rails, SQL, PostgreSQL, and DevOps workflows.
