            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don't think there's a good or bad way to introduce oneself. There's only a way the world sees you.</p><p>After my Bsc degree in Public Health, I couldn't continue in the field. </p><p>The traditional health industry was toxic and full of constraints, so I left to pursue something that promotes creativity and freedom.</p><p>It just felt naturally pleasing, that the open collaboration and mode of execution in crypto outweighs what I'll be getting elsewhere.</p><p>There was room to learn and the conversations were more interactive. I saw an opportunity for people like me to contribute and make impact to something global for the first time.</p><p>So I committed to that. 3 years later, a couple of smart contracts, and a litepaper about universal accounts, I'm still on that journey and I still believe we could make it better.</p><p>We have to. It is the only way people like me could easily gain access to opportunities around the world.</p><p>As a Nigerian, that move was unusual but I have always known that I have a choice. And there's so much we (humanity) can do together if we build the systems.</p><p>If the world is going to be better and inclusive, we have to ensure worldwide collaboration, verifiable credibility and economic freedom.</p><p>There's only one part of tech solving that, and that's the one I chose to work in.</p><p>I don't know if this revealed anything tangible about me but I believe I have a part to play in the future we build.</p><p>But my path is also not conventional so I struggle a lot. </p><p>I have a complex and stubborn mind and I also have some of the rarest ideas in tackling issues.</p><p>In the past, I was greatly unexposed and it cost me most of my teenage years. I know so much now, at 22 and I'm trying not to make such mistakes anymore.</p><p>Each failure is a gift. And I'm privileged to have learnt these things now.</p><p>The world would be much better if we are all truth-seeking and often evaluate our actions. So we can automate what needs to be automated, manage what's necessary and get rid of the rest. But more importantly, have empathy for even the littlest things.</p><p>My brain runs with so many ideas—on steroids, it's so messy in there. I'm mostly frustrated by the inefficiencies of humanity. I see it everywhere, everyday, every time and it's killing me. Most people (especially those around here) don't get it. </p><p>So here's where I will curate and share my thoughts publicly. Social media is so fragmented and people lose contexts.</p><p>This side is more peaceful. And the greatest thing I long for in life, is to finally have peace.</p><p>I want to build. I want to succeed. And I want to be happy.</p><p>Nice to meet you <span data-name="handshake" class="emoji" data-type="emoji">🤝</span></p>]]></content:encoded>
