I drive business growth and data-informed public-sector projects using AI tools.
What I'm looking for
I've led business development at Quickeasy Access Limited, driving growth for a credit facilitator connecting borrowers and lenders. Previously at DataScience Nigeria, I optimized project tracking to reduce milestone completion time by 20% and supervised 10+ analysts, data scientists, and consultants generating government insights for Edo State.
Across commercial banking, lending, manufacturing, e-commerce, and AI projects, I've originated deals, built client relationships, supported credit evaluation, and led teams. I've also increased monthly revenue by N5 million at Paelyt Solutions, mobilized more than N100 million in commercial deposits at FCMB, and contributed to EdoDiDa, a Data for Governance Platform.
