I build things.
Sometimes they work.

Software. Companies. Wealth. Myself.
Figuring it out in public.

LAGOS, NIGERIASCROLL TO EXPLORE CURRENTLY BUILDING

a working philosophy

Engineer by trade.
Builder by default.
Still figuring out the rest.

I’ve spent years building software and leading engineering teams. Now I’m increasingly interested in building things I own, documenting the process, and seeing where that leads.

[ still in progress ]

what has my attention

Currently.

An independent software
studio in Lagos, Nigeria.

BRAID LABS

Tools that resolve noise
into one trustworthy signal.

a public experiment

5,000,000,000

Seven years.
One very unreasonable number.

I’m documenting what happens when I deliberately try to build a ₦5 billion net worth before 40. The businesses, money decisions, mistakes, wins, fitness, life and everything between.

DAY — AGE 33 → 40TARGET — ₦5B

the day job

I also write
code for a living.

Roughly a decade of software engineering and leadership. Real systems, backend infrastructure, distributed systems and teams that ship.

The boring professional stuff
PHP / Laravel TypeScript Node.js Vue / Nuxt Go AWS MySQL / PostgreSQL Redis Kafka

the rest of it

Elsewhere
in my life.

A few things keeping the
