I'm a creative designer and a Computer and Communication
Engineering graduate from Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University.
Somewhere between lectures I started a YouTube channel — and that turned into the most
useful education I've had.
I grew that channel from zero to 50,000+ subscribers. Doing it meant
learning every part of the thing myself, right down to the website that had to sit
behind it. Nobody handed me a template. I learned by watching things fail and working
out exactly which part lost the person on the other end.
"Every skill I sell, I learned because something of my own wasn't working and I refused to leave it broken."
That's the through-line in both things I do now. A website and an
app are the same problem at different scales: someone arrives with an
intention, and every screen either moves them forward or gives them a reason to leave.
The engineering side keeps me honest about performance and structure; the design side
keeps me honest about whether any of it is actually pleasant to use.
Today I design and build websites and apps for creators, businesses,
and organisations — from a landing page to a full product. I work
directly with clients: you talk to the person doing the work, and you
hear back fast.
If you care more about whether a thing performs than whether it wins a design award,
we'll get along fine.
