Research → Build → Document → Teach → Create → Give back
I build websites and web applications, and AI workflows that take repetitive work off your plate.
Websites and web apps
Websites I have built and shipped.
Real products with real users. Each card says what it does, what my role was, the stack, and whether it is live or still in development.
AI automation
Got a process you would like to automate?
I design and build AI-assisted workflows with n8n: content pipelines, application and lead tracking, reporting and approvals. My background is data science, so I can also measure whether the workflow actually saved you time. A person stays in the loop wherever quality or reputation matters.
- Consult and discover. A paid session to understand the process and what can realistically be automated.
- Scope and quote. You see exactly what will be built and what it costs before any work begins.
- Build, test and hand over. A working workflow, tested, with documentation.
Work with me
Five ways to work together.
Each one starts with a short, guided brief, so you tell me once and I can reply with a proper scope.

Architecture and requirements discovery, then design and build.

Workflow discovery for repetitive processes, built with n8n.

Businesses I am building.
Registered and growing businesses, each with its own site and Instagram.
Research
Can we tell whether an AI teaches well?
My independent project, AfriPed, tests whether a rubric-based evaluation that runs on an ordinary computer can catch pedagogical failures that overlap metrics such as ROUGE-L miss. It is in progress and not yet peer reviewed.
Stories
Places, people, buildings, food and the questions they raise.
Travel diaries and short documentaries from Porto-Novo to Ibadan, in English, Yoruba and Pidgin. Non-fiction books on these places are planned, and they will be linked here.
Writing
Thinking on the page.
Essays, technical writing and Becoming Her, my ongoing series on growing and building.
UGC and short-form video
Story-led content for brands.
Short-form video and UGC for technology, lifestyle, travel, culture and consumer brands. I take the brief from idea and script to filming and edit.
Selected clips are being added. The full portfolio and rates are on the next page.
The brief form asks for the product, the goal, the audience, the deliverables, the deadline and the emotion you want viewers to feel, then opens an email to me with it all written out.
