Biography
I'm a writer and editor and have spent the past six years telling a range of stories on content and editorial teams in publishing, media, and tech. In that time, I've explored various storytelling formats across different beats: student culture, policy and governance, work and career, money, and crypto. My work has been referenced in numerous conversations about how Nigerians navigate money and think about personal finance. As a Senior Editor at Zikoko, I help manage the newsroom's operations to tell important stories about Nigeria's youth culture.
