I am a distinguished digital technology professional and researcher with a robust track record in international research, innovation, and leadership. I currently work at the UK Ministry of Justice, overseeing strategic criminal justice data-driven projects that improve the criminal justice system and public safety. Professionally, I have experience in key work on projects, including AI-powered solutions at NatWest Bank UK, for close to 2 years, enhancing efficiency and customer experience. As founder of Getitdone Consulting in the UK, a forward-looking technical consulting start-up business, I am building digital learning platforms that have currently empowered over 600 professionals across the UK and Nigeria since 2020. My research has been respected in the international community, as evidenced by a recent keynote appearance and invitation to present at the 12th IPMA USA Research Conference 2024. IPMA USA is a member of the IPMA International Project Management Association, a global federation of project management associations. I was named a finalist of the IPMA prestigious industry awards, the IPMA Global Research Award 2025 in Dubai, and also named a finalist of the APM UK prestigious industry awards for the Research Paper of the Year Award under the APM Education and Research Awards 2025 to be held in June, showcasing my influence in education and research. I have been ranked and recognised with professional membership in my industry as a Fellow of the Association for Project Management (APM), the first and only chartered body of project management globally. I have served as a peer-review expert for more than 25 papers for journals like IGI Global, Taylor & Francis, and JCBM in South Africa and many more. I have been named a judge on the advisory board/committees for the APM Education and Research Awards 2025. I have a record of professional/academic publications and research as lead author and co-author of significant papers with significant citation counts within the last 3 years. International media articles like The Guardian and Nigerian Tribune have features about my industry achievements as a” Certified Global Tech Hero”, highlighting my influence across AI, data, and digital education. As a member of the Forbes Coaching Council, I actively mentor professionals, championing inclusive innovation through volunteering. My work integrates cutting edge digital technologies with data driven solutions to enhance system efficiencies, promote human capital development, and drive impactful community health initiatives. I am committed to leveraging digital tools for disease prevention, improving work-life balance, and fostering professional wellness. Through research, digital coaching, and thought leadership—via weekly articles, presentations, and digital engagements—I provide actionable insights and strategic solutions. My published research further demonstrates my passion for shaping innovative healthcare solutions and advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
