I’m a systems entrepreneur working to reimagine how food moves across Africa. As founder and CEO of Farmz2u, I build digital and infrastructure tools that connect smallholder farmers to formal markets, reduce post-harvest loss, and enable traceability for buyers navigating climate and sustainability regulations. My career began in asset management and investment banking, but a personal experience influenced my decision to pivot, bringing my finance background into agriculture to tackle systemic challenges like value asymmetry, liquidity gaps, and supply chain invisibility. I’m currently a Skoll Scholar and MBA candidate at the University of Oxford, where I’m deepening my work on inclusive supply chains and climate resilience. I’ve had the privilege of being recognized by AGRA, HRH The Princess Royal, and the Nigerian Economic Summit Group, where I contribute to shaping policy for MSMEs. I believe in enterprise that restores dignity, in data that tells the full story, and in building systems that center people, not just profit.
