I’m a Nigerian-born, London-based music lover, creator, and industry professional passionate about discovering, nurturing, and spotlighting exceptional talent. As an A&R and Music Lead, I specialise in signing and developing artists globally, with a focus on gospel music. As a member of the Recording Academy, I’m proud to be part of a vibrant global community of music professionals shaping the future of the industry. Outside of music, I’m a film and theatre enthusiast who loves to travel, experiencing new cultures, sounds, people, and art. Driven by a desire to create and connect, music is at the heart of all I do.
