I’m driven by the momentum of dreaming big and the authenticity of knowing I come from greatness.
I spend a lot of time asking questions.
Lately, they've looked like this:
I'm a writer, researcher, and creative interested in the intersections of history, gender, politics, and culture. I'm currently pursuing a B.A. in the History of Health, Science, and Medicine and a B.A. in African Studies at Yale University. Through my work, I'm exploring how stories shape the way societies remember, organize, and pursue justice. My long-term goal is to contribute to feminist advocacy and community-based social justice work that centers the voices and experiences of marginalized people.
I believe that understanding people requires both careful research and genuine relationships, and I'm at my best when I can combine thoughtful inquiry with meaningful collaboration. That same belief has shaped the communities I've helped build at Yale. As President and choreographer of Dzana Dance, Yale's first and only Afro-fusion dance group (2025–2026), I helped cultivate a space where culture, creativity, and community came together. During my tenure, the team performed for Nigerian artist Ayra Starr.
My commitment to celebrating African stories also extends to the Yale African Students Association, where I've helped organize events that foster meaningful Pan-African connections and elevate African voices across disciplines. Through initiatives such as Africa Week, we've brought together artists, entrepreneurs, scholars, and change makers—including Nigerian singer-songwriter Fave and entrepreneur Nataliey Bitature—to challenge stereotypes and celebrate the breadth of African excellence.
Beyond campus, I serve as an Events Lead Coordinator with Through the Eyes of She, an initiative dedicated to advancing gender equality across Africa. Most recently, I helped organize a screening of Fight Like a Girl, followed by a discussion with filmmaker and entrepreneur Clarisse, creating space for conversations about the resilience of women and girls living in conflict-affected communities in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Whether I'm writing, organizing, researching, or dancing, I'm ultimately interested in the same question: How can stories help people understand one another more deeply—and inspire communities to imagine more just futures?
