Spending my final semester at UNILAG in Singapore 🇸🇬.
Selected for the prestigious IRIS@NUSingapore programme:
🌍 4,500+ applicants
🎓 37 selected globally
🌍 Only African in the cohort
Grateful for every opportunity and everyone who made this possible. 🚀
Over the weekend, I decided to create an open source repo for DSA solutions and patterns.
The goal is simple: build consistency, document well- detailed solutions like real interview scenarios, and create a space where we can learn together.

✅Admitted into UNILAG for Computer Engineering in 2017.
✅I struggled financially and took on private tutoring and piano gigs outside school to keep up, working with the skill I had at the time.
✅I never had a bedspace from Year 1 to Year 4. I squatted, sleeping on floors, concrete, and chairs countless times. On good days, I slept on a bed that wasn’t in the best shape.
✅Towards the end of 2021, I sold things like paper and drawing instruments to raise 100k and got myself a laptop.
✅I got back to coding in 2022 after a break of 6 years and started Software Engineering.
✅In the same year, I applied to many big tech companies, interviewed with a few, but ended up being served the rejection plate all round (100+).
✅Particularly, I got rejected by Bloomberg in 2022 after the final round (it took about 2 months of interviewing) for a summer internship role. I took the feedback, worked on them, and trusted God.
✅In 2023, I interviewed with Bloomberg again, this time for a SWE Placement Role (to use as my SIWES / IT). Thankfully, from interviewing to getting an offer took only two weeks.
