Technology Manager

Freelance Web Designer

Think fast. Be Open. Innovate. Automate. And if you must fail, fail fast and re-execute.

A Little About Me

Born in Nigeria. Based in Atlanta, GA. I've been in Technology for over 17 years, and worked across multiple disciplines.

I love my tea. I love football (soccer), and have made it a point to go to every world cup since I caught the bug in Brazil. I share my knowledge and I've learned to value solitude.
