Background
AI Engineer, Backend Developer, and Data Scientist based in Abuja, Nigeria. Five years of building systems that convert data and language models into tools that make a real difference.
I'm a Data Scientist and AI Engineer with over five years of hands-on experience in Python, machine learning, SQL, and data analysis. My core work — building predictive models, designing data pipelines, forecasting, and turning complex datasets into actionable insight — is entirely my own.
My experience spans finance, government platforms, insurance, and social impact. At Fourcore Integrated Services, I lead AI development on Nigeria's VREG vehicle registration platform: building ML models, forecasting dashboards with SARIMA and Prophet, and integrating LLMs via the Claude API. Before that, at Pairview Limited in the UK, I developed forecasting models and analytics dashboards that contributed to a 20% reduction in customer churn and a 15% lift in cross-sell performance.
Beyond data science, I design and build complete AI-powered systems — combining my analytical background with AI-assisted backend development (FastAPI, PostgreSQL) to ship end-to-end solutions. I understand the architecture and concepts deeply; AI helps me write the production code. This is how I built ALIP, SchoLink, KingdomConnect, HopeBridge AI, and the RAG Chatbot system.
