About Me
Hello. I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student at the University of Cincinnati (UC) , advised by Dr. Seokki Lee . I am broadly interested in research on data provenance, databases, and machine learning and I am affiliated with the Databases Group.
I received the Graduate Student Engineer of the Month (July 2024) from UC. Before joining UC, I graduated with a Bachelor of Science (First Class Honours) in Computer Science from the University of Ibadan, Nigeria, and was awarded the best graduating student in the computer science department.
Professionally, I have gained experience in various fields, including business process analysis, data science and engineering, data analysis, software design, project management, and change management. Additionally, I enjoy mentoring young people and underrepresented individuals in STEM.
