What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a role where I can apply clinical nutrition, research, education, and evidence-based meal planning to contribute to meaningful public health outcomes.

I'm a Dietitian-Nutritionist with supervised clinical practice in inpatient and outpatient settings, delivering nutrition assessment, therapeutic diets, and individualized meal plans through the Nutrition Care Process.

At University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital Ituku-Ozalla, I collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, monitor nutrition recovery, and educate patients on therapeutic diet adherence to support post-discharge care.

My research work at Centenum Health includes analyzing nutrient composition, glycemic index, and dietary suitability of traditional African foods. I documented more than 100 foods per country and helped validate nutrition data for Dietbloom's database.

I'm committed to evidence-based nutrition education, healthy lifestyles, and practical public health solutions that meet community nutrition needs.
