Senior Project Manager at Equitable Bank delivering digital lending modernization and enterprise transformation.

At Equitable Bank, I lead enterprise transformation initiatives supporting the bank’s strategic modernization roadmap. I directed programs with portfolio investments exceeding $3M and helped modernize digital lending and customer onboarding.

I led the full delivery lifecycle, from business cases and requirements through testing, cutover, and hypercare. This work created a scalable foundation for continued lending modernization and workflow automation.

At Propel Holdings, I owned the product vision, roadmap, and backlog for digital lending capabilities. I helped modernize manual lending processes and supported customer onboarding improvements through phased releases.

Earlier, I led an EMV-enabled Pay-at-the-Pump implementation at Access Bank PLC and a migration from BackOne to Finacle Core Banking at SEAP Microfinance Bank LTD. Across these programs, I coordinated delivery across business and technology teams, vendors, testing, and operational readiness.
