Co-Founder
Ifeoma · Owerri, Nigeria
Tried to solve Nigeria's unemployment problem. Idea started as a Linkedin-for-Nigeria, but that's, unfortunately, just a couch-idea. Through interviews with Nigerian business owners and students-alike, we pivoted all the way to building an entrepreneurial edTech platform selling high-schools a Coursera/Shopify hybrid platform for students to 1. learn entrepreneurship and 2. host their own businesses.
Received MOUs from 2 High Schools in Owerri, Nigeria to start testing our product with students.
Team had very different goals heading into the summer, so we decided to end the project.
It's quite difficult to build a product for a country you've never lived in!

Tech Ethics and Policy Fellow
Stanford Institute for Human-Centered AI (HAI) · Stanford, CA
Poured my soul into building a community-building platform that I wanted to call a startup. I got pretty good at using AI to build, but realized I had a lot to learn about taking products to market (and honestly about how the business world works too). Mentored by Josh Nesbit
Built Rally, a web platform for organizing spontaneous meetups, with Cursor/Lovable.
Site had a map interface, real-time RSVPs, image uploading + posting, auth, supported by a Supabase backend.
THE LESSONS: 1. When building, start with your customer and create your product from there, not vice versa. 2. Build faster. No need a perfectionist on MVP #1.
