Nigeria

Message

At GIFTED QUALITY WORKS INTERNATIONAL, I develop and implement a data governance framework, including clear roles, responsibilities, and processes for managing data assets.

I implement data quality standards and practices, and manage metadata, data cataloguing, lineage, and traceability so stakeholders can discover and understand data assets.

At CARDSTEL SOLUTIONS LIMITED, I helped roll out an enterprise-wide data governance framework focused on improving data quality and protecting sensitive information. I also identified customer insights and recommended areas for business improvement.

Earlier, I worked across card personalization and data quality at AVIDOR SERVICES LIMITED, ALTECH WEST AFRICA, and ELECTRONICS PAYPLUS LIMITED. My experience includes smart card personalization, cryptographic key management using Thales HSMs, and card quality control; I hold a BSc (Hons) in Electronics and Computer Engineering and the Certified Data Management Professional (CDMP) credential.
