Summary of Profile
I am an experienced and forward-thinking Electrical and Electronic Engineering professional with a passion for innovation, sustainability, and capacity building. With over a decade of hands-on experience as a Senior Technologist at The Federal Polytechnic, Ilaro, my work bridges academia, industry, and community impact.
My academic journey culminated in an MSc in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (with Distinction) from Coventry University, where I focused on cutting-edge fields such as 5G/B5G communication, advanced control systems, signal processing, instrumentation, and renewable energy systems. My MSc dissertation explored the performance analysis of indoor mmWave 5G networks, reflecting my commitment to future-proof, high-impact research.
Currently, I am engaged in the design and fabrication of a solar-powered campus electric vehicle, integrating sustainable transport and clean energy solutions — a project that aligns with my broader vision of environmental responsibility and technological innovation in Africa.
I am also a certified member of COREN, the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), and other reputable professional bodies, with a proven track record of conference presentations, student mentorship, and community development initiatives, including yearly medical outreaches and relief distribution programmes.
