Bio

Born and grew up in the mega city of Lagos, Nigeria, I grew up speaking English. Earned a degree in Sociology in the Republic of Benin (French speaking) there I worked as a school admin at the capital (Porto Novo) after my studies. I did a stunt of a year working for a Project for young people in Narobi, Kenya, after which I went to Italy for a 2year period for a religious formation. Presently live in Montet, Swiss.

Studies and Formation has widened my horizon and cultural awareness and afforded me the opportunity to travel and experience within Africa and Europe.
