I studied Microbiology at Adekunle Ajasin University, but I’ve always been drawn to tech. After graduation, I felt stuck—no job, no clear direction, and like my degree wasn’t enough.
Back in school, I ran a clothing business selling men’s wear online and even had a physical shop. But I wanted more—a skill I could carry anywhere. I’ve always dreamed of working from anywhere in the world. That’s when I started seriously exploring tech.
I discovered Python in late 2024 and saw it as the key to everything I was looking for: automation, web scraping, and eventually blockchain development.
I began with Mosh Hamedani’s free Python course in December 2024, which gave me a strong Python foundation and introduced me to building simple websites with Django.
Then I completed the Python for Everybody specialization on Coursera, earning these certificates:
In May 2025, I completed this Udemy course to deepen my web scraping skills:
These courses gave me a strong foundation in Python, web APIs, and data extraction—skills I now use in real-world projects.
