Biography
I have bachelor's and master's degrees in Mass Communication from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, and the University of Lagos, respectively. I have professional experience working in journalism and media across print and digital establishments. I am pursuing a PhD to help me transition from media practice to academia, driven by a commitment to teaching and a desire to support the next generation of scholars. My research interests in social media, feminist activism, gender studies, media advocacy and representations underpin my desire to contribute to media scholarship, shape critical conversations and inspire students through mentorship and teaching.
