Compared with Lagos

Born in Ibadan, Nigeria, now based in Lagos.

You can find the longer version of my work in my Professional Record, or book some time with me if you’d rather talk.

On the flip side, I’m hedging my bets as a sole proprietor with ToluSupportsLocalBusinesses. Tinubu may have had something to do with that.

I’m also on X, LinkedIn, Discord, Instagram and YouTube. You can check my GitHub too. I’m working on making the contribution graph offensively green by next year.

Or just email me.
