What I'm looking for

I’m looking for advisory, consulting, and project-based engagements where I can deliver data-backed, decision-ready analysis of energy, macroeconomic, and investment risk for investors, development financiers, and government institutions.

I lead applied energy-economics and macro-financial risk advisory work at the Federal University of Education Zaria for government and private-sector clients across Sub-Saharan Africa.

I use DSGE, NARDL, and GMM models to assess oil-price transmission, exchange-rate pass-through, and inflation dynamics in Nigeria, South Africa, Morocco, and Côte d’Ivoire. My work has produced 15+ peer-reviewed publications and policy briefs adopted by regional economic bodies.

I turn complex quantitative findings into executive summaries, risk matrices, and decision-ready frameworks that support monetary-policy and energy-investment decisions.

I also independently review methodology for six international journals and mentor researchers and postgraduate students in advanced quantitative methods. I’m available for advisory, consulting, and rapid-response project engagements focused on energy, macro risk, and development finance.
