Q & A

Hometown

Lagos, Nigeria

What excites you most about the work you do at Penn?

The idea that I will have a direct hand in building a legacy of the world class education that I was fortunate to have, and of course, the opportunity to work with an excellent set of accomplished individuals who I learn so much from.

How did your own experiences with higher education change you?

The most significant thing that higher education gave me was clarity. I became clearer on who I was as a person, what my goals were career-wise, and in my personal life. It led me to start taking more conscious and intentional steps towards achieving my goals.

What activity is at the top of your bucket list?

Taking a tour of Havana in a bright orange convertible Cadillac.
