I'm a Computer and Communication Engineering graduate from
Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University. Somewhere between lectures I started a
YouTube channel — and that turned into the most useful education I've had.
I helped grow that channel from zero to 50,000+ subscribers. Doing it meant
learning every part of the pipeline myself: shooting, cutting, pacing, sound, and eventually
the website that had to sit behind it all. Nobody handed me a template. I learned by watching
things fail and working out exactly which part lost the viewer.
"Every skill I sell, I learned because something of my own wasn't working and I refused to leave it broken."
That's the through-line in both things I do now. A website and a
video edit are the same problem wearing different clothes: you have a few
seconds of someone's attention, and every element either earns that attention or wastes it.
The engineering side keeps me honest about performance and structure; the creator side keeps
me honest about whether anyone actually cares.
Today I design and build websites for creators, businesses, and organisations, and edit video
for people who need their footage to hold attention rather than just exist. I work
directly with clients — you talk to the person doing the work, and you hear
back fast.
If you care more about whether a thing performs than whether it wins a design award, we'll get
along fine.
