What I'm looking for

I am looking to deploy my skills and expertise to an organization that delivers actual customer value. A firm with a great culture and people focused on a mission that I resonate with personally and professionally.

I have 17 years of professional experience in the Digital Services space managing digital products, value-added services, business operations, and leading multimillion Naira projects.


I am the go-to person for defining a product's why, when, and what. I am exceptionally skilled in seeing a product through from conception to launch. I like viewing my professional experience as a blend between business operations, product management, and strategic planning and I have been able to successfully combine the diverse worlds to create a record of success in increasing revenue, developing and implementing brilliant business strategies, maximising performance and value of portfolios among other things.
In my current and previous roles, I have an unimpeachable track record of meeting targets, effectively managing the overall development of services and products, coordinating operational planning and execution, spearheading resource allocation, regulatory compliance, achieving deadlines, improving internal processes and procedures, boosting efficiency, reducing costs and ensuring seamless operations.


I hold a Certificate in Sustainable Business Strategy from Harvard Business School, a Special Executive Masters Programme Certificate from Metropolitan School of Business & Management, Dubai, a Senior Management Programme Certificate from Lagos Business School and a B.Sc. in Business Administration.


SPECIALITIES: Digital Product Lifecycle Management, Communications, Post-Merger Integration, Project Management, Partnerships & Engagement, Strategic Planning, Revenue Growth, Operations Management, Content Creation & Strategy, Customer Operations Management
