My entrepreneurial journey began at street level in Lagos — selling mobile recharge cards, absorbing early setbacks, and learning what it takes to build without a safety net. Over more than twenty years I went on to found technology companies, create enterprise products adopted across West Africa, establish international partnerships, and lead complex security and transformation projects for banks and governments.
I founded SB Telecoms & Devices and created TAMS, a workforce-management platform adopted across 2,000+ West African organizations. I established and led ZKTeco West Africa, and delivered mission-critical work spanning banking access control, biometrics, government payroll transformation and smart-city infrastructure. I later founded SparkXplorer, extending my work into AI-enabled education.
After benefiting from Stanford Seed and Stanford LEAD, I served entrepreneurial communities as President of the EDC Alumni Association at Pan-Atlantic University and Vice President of the Stanford Seed Transformation Network — and worked to open the same doors for other African founders. Today, as a doctoral researcher, entrepreneur and public thinker, I bring those experiences together to advise organizations, project sponsors, founders and leadership teams.
