Engineer by training, data scientist by practice
I studied Electronic Engineering at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, and graduated with Second Class Upper honours. Engineering taught me to measure a system before I change it.
Alongside that I led people. Through AIESEC I went from HR data analyst to Branch Director, leading teams of 50+ members, then led the HR and organisational development team at AIESEC UK.
I moved to the UK for an MSc in Data Science at the University of Salford and finished with Distinction in 2026. Now I build and evaluate ML systems which are deployed to be explainable and are honest about their limits.

Amazing individual with exceptional team management skills. He is an invaluable asset to any team he works with or any project he embarks on. Bright is a mentor, a role model, and working with him was a very rewarding experience...one that won't be forgotten. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a leader who truly makes a difference.
It was a pleasure and privileged experience working with Bright in and out of AIESEC. Working on the same team with him during his time as the branch director of AIESEC in Enugu, his dedication to activating leadership in people was inspiring, his foresight commendable. His attention to detail and his skills made him a worthy team leader.
Bright is an open-minded and very dedicated person. Working with him was a delight as he was always ready to get the work done, very resourceful and innovative as well. One of my favourite parts of working with Bright was that he never came with just the problem. He shares the problem, and also profers possible solutions.
Bright is someone who happens to be very self-motivated, and this makes it very easy to work with him. He has a penchant for creating structures that connects people to processes, and that is a very notable characteristics for someone in his field. I highly recommend him in Talent Management and OD.
