Founder of Nile • Software & Product Leader

I am the Founder & Product Lead of Nile, where we build digital commerce and business-management software for merchants across Africa. In our first 20 months, Nile has processed over ₦1 Billion in transaction volume for African businesses.

My background combines rigorous academic computing with hands-on product execution. I graduated with a CGPA of 4.60/5.00 in Computer Science and am currently pursuing a Master of Information Technology. I build software systems that translate complex, high-friction African business problems into seamless, reliable digital products.
