Network Surveillance Engineer @ IHS Towers

As a NOC Engineer, I gained invaluable hands-on experience in monitoring and maintaining network performance. I worked closely with a team of experts to ensure the smooth operation of telecom infrastructure. I identified and resolved network issues, proactively monitoring key performance indicators to detect anomalies and potential bottlenecks while utilizing various tools and technologies to analyze network data, generate reports, and provide actionable insights for optimization.

March 2020 - Decemebr 2021

Data Scientist @ ScholarNurture

I collaborated with a skilled team, contributing to data gathering, cleaning, and preprocessing tasks while utilizing Python to manipulate and analyze large datasets, and extract meaningful insights. I implemented statistical modeling techniques to identify patterns and trends in complex data sets, and through the application of machine learning algorithms, I developed predictive models that enhanced the organization's decision-making processes.

Education

2016-2024

Computer Science with Economics at Obafemi Awolowo University

I am currently pursuing a dual-degree program in Computer Science and Economics at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife in Nigeria. This unique academic path allows me to develop a well-rounded skill set that combines technical expertise in computing (programming, data structures, database management, AI etc.) with a comprehensive understanding of economic principles (microeconomics, macroeconomics, econometrics, international economics, development economics, economic behaviour etc.) The school uses a thorough and carefully curated curriculum, which is used to proficiently teach, train and equip me in both disciplines. This further prepares me for diverse career opportunities that bridge the gap between technology and economics.
