Citizenship: United States and Nigeria
Having grown up in several cultural settings, I identify with multiple countries across Africa, Europe, and North America, all of which I consider home. Alongside the diverse nature of my upbringing, my academic interests are of an interdisciplinary nature. I completed my BA in Culture, Media, and Creative Industries at King’s College London, in a city that I got to fall in love with and in which I subsequently completed a MSc degree in Urbanisation and Development at the London School of Economics. I am presently preparing to transition from the vibrancy of London to the bright lights of New York City. I eagerly anticipate embarking on this journey through the MA Global Thought program here at Columbia, where I aim to deepen my understanding of global societal issues, more particularly in the realm of African development, as well as exploring ways to integrate my various areas of interests.
