Life & Career Milestones
My path in life took a while to figure out
1.
I grew up between Chicago and Nigeria, which showed me how differently opportunity is distributed and sparked my desire to promote education access.
2.
Watching my younger sister navigate epilepsy taught me how easily systems can overlook people who deserve support and visibility—I knew I needed to help make a difference for them.
3.
In high school, I believed becoming a pediatric neurosurgeon was the only way I could create meaningful change in the world.
4.
After shadowing doctors in college, I realized I wanted to impact systems and communities, not just work one-on-one with patients.
5.
I spent a summer teaching at an international school in China, opening my eyes to the power of building opportunities from the ground up.
6.
I returned to Chicago and launched a college admissions company to help students discover pathways they never knew were possible.
7.
I helped build low-cost schools in Nigeria and saw education become a stable source of hope and belonging for entire communities.
8.
Today, I work in philanthropy connecting communities, partners, and resources so more people can access the support they need to thrive.
