ABOUT ME
Born and raised in Kano, Nigeria, it was always my ambition to attend a college in the US to obtain my Engineering degree. After completing high school, I was presented with the opportunity to study at an American college in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. This was the perfect stepping stone for me, as I was able to transfer to Binghamton University in 2007. Not only have I truly enjoyed my academic experience in the US, I have also found a love for this country and its people. As I approach completion of my Master's Degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering, my new aspiration is to pursue an engineering career in the US that will allow me to grow personally and professionally.
