I grew up under the wings of Mr. Hanson Johnson who was so interested in each person that visited the hub, either by direct contact or through staff. The most difficult puzzle for me then was direction (which way to go) but joining Start Innovation Hub hub was all I needed to solve that problem without even knowing.

Although I graduated with a Petroleum Engineering Degree from the University of Uyo, Project CREATE fuelled my passion for coding and contributed immensely to getting hired by Tek Experts, a Microsoft Partner, as a MIcrosoft Office 365 Engineer. What I appreciated more is the community of like minds I got connected to and grew together.

A major turning point in my career came when I went for 6 months out of school industrial Training placement at Start Innovation Hub in Uyo. That’s where Computer Science Theories made sense to me. They did not just train, they mentored and gave me unhindered access to the local and global tech community where I was able to facilitate my learning experience interacting and collaborating with other developers.

Tech gave me a second chance
Starting out as an Android developer in 2016 without a laptop and any background of tech, was one life audacious step I’ve taken. And a big thank you to this team who guided a young confused girl through the right path, gave me a Lenovo ThinkPad Laptop, Scholarship and a learning community to belong to for free.
Now I’m a voice in the tech ecosystem, founded a blended training organisation, Tech Skills Hack, one that’s helping other young people navigate the huddles of becoming successful Tech humans and has been featured on national and international platforms.

We are just getting started!

As an Architectural student in the university, I was curious and enthusiastic about tech and how I can use it to have an edge in my career. When I heard of Project CREATE Programme by Start Innovation Hub, I had to give it a try and today, I can boldly say I made the right choice because I am now a Frontend Developer and also serving as the software project manager for Jiggle App. What I love most about this team is their selflessness and going extra miles to connect serious graduate trainees to opportunities.
