I couldn't have written this script,
Call me the Jack of unrelated trades who loves early mornings, spreadsheets, and anything that gets my heart rate to new limits.
My life has been a bit like a patchwork quilt—colorful, diverse, and stitched together with lots of love and hard work. I'm very imperfect and very hard-working—in a perfect ratio of 100:100.
I had three Idols growing up—Carl Lewis, Warren Buffett, and Yo-Yo Ma. How? Even though I grew up in Nigeria, Dad was a Computer Programmer; we had a Readers Digest Subscription and a massive Library - I read RD a lot and watched the Olympics. Those three characters captured my heart. I knew early on that I was going to be either an Athlete, a cellist, or an Investor (I do all three pretty well)
I've played the cello professionally; I led a string quartet and was the first chair on a chamber orchestra, making music that could stir the soul (I've performed with some big-name world renowned Artists, toured, and played on hit Albums)
Then, I swapped notes for swatches and ran my own interior design practice, filling homes with beauty and warmth.
Not one to sit still or say I can't do that, I took the wheel of a logistics business, managing a fleet of 40 trucks as smoothly as a well-rehearsed orchestra.
Nowadays, I'm the CFO for our family business and also a full-time Financial Advisor. I have a true passion for teaching, whether it's financial education or music—I find a way to make the complex simple. (I'm a shy introvert, but I've worked hard on public speaking)
I usually need only 5hrs of sleep to have a great day. My perfect day starts at 5 a.m. with meditation, a freshly brewed cup of espresso, and a workout that gets my heart racing like crazy—for energy and focus. My clients say they love working with me, and honestly, I just love what I do. It's a joy and a privilege to help people feel confident about their future.
