Strategy is only valuable when it actually ships and sells.
I operate at the intersection of digital product development, database infrastructure, and automated revenue marketing. Over the past 6+ years, I have helped founders, coaches, and organizations turn ideas into scalable digital platforms with predictable customer acquisition.

Founder · Lumenvox Academy
Mar 2026 – Present
Lagos, Nigeria (Remote)
The challenge: Most AI courses on the market teach the tools but stop there. Students finish the lessons with no real path to actually using or monetizing what they learned, and no way to promote what they'd built.
- Built and shipped a 10-module, 96+ lesson AI video creation and monetization programme from scratch, with lifetime access and a certificate on completion.
- Designed the full funnel end to end: positioning, marketing site, pricing and checkout, student portal, and lesson delivery.
- Launched a two-sided affiliate programme (50% direct commission, 10% sub-affiliate override) with a real-time earnings dashboard, turning students and outside partners into a distribution channel.
- Built a parallel Gig/Opportunity Hub for people who want paid AI-skill gigs without enrolling as full students.
- Grew the community to 2,000+ members across all platforms, with 500+ students currently enrolled.

Social Media & Digital Marketing Manager · Hyphen Connect AI
Jan 2026 – Present
United Kingdom (Remote)

- Built AI-assisted content workflows and UGC videos from scratch, reducing campaign production time by 60% and enabling weekly multi-channel publishing at scale.
- Built and launched full-funnel marketing systems for sub-brands in the Hyphen ecosystem spanning awareness, nurturing, and conversion, driving consistent month-on-month pipeline growth from near zero.
- Repositioned the brand narrative around practical AI transformation for businesses, increasing audience engagement and establishing credibility in the AI sector.
- Designed automated email sequences for the brand and sub-brands in its ecosystem that reduced manual marketing effort by 40% while maintaining personalized audience touchpoints.
- Led cross-channel growth strategy across LinkedIn, Instagram, and other channels, growing both the brand and sub-brands within its ecosystem in visibility and inbound lead flow within the first quarter: community building, demo booking, and lead magnet access.

Growth & Acquisition Lead · VenDoor Africa

- Designed and executed a multi-channel customer acquisition strategy that improved new user sign-ups and platform engagement within the first 45 days of joining.
- Built structured lead nurturing workflows and conversion-optimised landing sequences, improving the platform's ability to move prospects from awareness to action.

Head of Sales & Marketing and Business Development Associate · Newton Academy
Mar 2024 – Oct 2025
Lagos, Nigeria (Hybrid)

Digital Marketing Strategist · Swiftly Autostore (Swires Technologies)
Sept 2023 – Feb 2024

Growth & Sales Strategist · WAF Institute
