What I'm looking for

I seek roles combining legal practice and operations where I can provide litigation and compliance support, improve processes, and contribute to service delivery and social-impact goals.

I am a detail-oriented Barrister and Solicitor called to the Nigerian Bar in 2025, combining legal practice with hands-on operations management. I deliver accurate legal drafting, litigation support, contract preparation, and client-focused service in fast-paced environments.

My experience spans customer operations at JumiaPay—where I increased vendor subscription to credit facilities by 15%—to paralegal and extern roles supporting court filings, legal research, and client liaison for law firms. I also managed logistics, cash flow, and distribution operations for a nationwide cement distribution business.

I bring strong administrative, compliance, and cross-functional collaboration skills, and I am motivated by service delivery improvements, timely results, and contributing to causes like climate action and gender equality.
