Technologist & Humanist | Author of The Spirit of Complexity | AI Engineer Building Liberatory Learning Systems
I architect AI systems with a deep commitment to human-centric design. With 6+ years as a Lead AI Engineer, I build tools that recognize human complexity rather than reduce it. My work spans from production-ready multi-agent systems to philosophical explorations of how technology can nurture—rather than control—human potential.
📍 Current: Nigeria | 🎯 Next: Dubai, UAE | 📚 Book: The Spirit of Complexity (2024)
| Area | Achievement | Philosophy in Action |
|---|---|---|
| Agentic AI | Exceptional Software Engineer (Mercer) | Testing LLM behavior with the understanding that models, like humans, learn in non-linear ways |
| High-Performance Systems | Lead AI Architect (YC Fintech) | Migrated to LangGraph, recognizing that stateful, multi-agent systems better mirror human collaboration |
| Entrepreneurship | Founder, Vora.now | Built AI that listens (voice interviews) rather than forcing forms, respecting human communication patterns |
| Project | Status | Vision |
|---|---|---|
| The Spirit of Complexity | Published Book (2024) | A manifesto against standardized education, advocating for technology that adapts to human learning patterns |
| Spirit Framework | Open Source Project | Building tools that help people discover their unique learning styles—not enforce standardized ones |
| Learning Pattern Research | Community-Driven | Collecting and visualizing how minds naturally form connections |
"True learning, like the wind, cannot be controlled—only understood and nurtured."
The Spirit Framework is an open-source initiative exploring how technology can:
- Recognize individual learning patterns without standardizing them
- Create tools that scaffold natural understanding rather than imposing artificial structures
- Build learning communities that evolve organically
Current Focus: Building pattern recognition tools that respect neurodiversity and cognitive individuality.

I contribute to open-source projects that align with building more adaptable, human-friendly systems:
- LangGraph: Building resilient, stateful language agents
- LlamaIndex: Enhancing data ingestion for more intuitive information retrieval
- OpenBB: Contributing to transparent financial data tools
- Spirit Framework: Building tools for liberatory learning (coming soon)
| Category | Technologies |
|---|---|
| Languages | Python (Expert), TypeScript, JavaScript, Go |
| AI/ML | LangChain, LangGraph, Transformers, PyTorch, RAG Architectures |
| Cloud & DevOps | AWS, Docker, CI/CD, MLOps |
| Databases | PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, Pinecone (Vector), Redis |
The Spirit of Complexity (2024) explores the tension between standardized education systems and the natural ways minds learn. Drawing from my experiences in Nigeria's educational system and my work in AI, the book advocates for technology that serves human complexity rather than simplifying it.
