About Me

Software Engineer and Data Analyst by day, Blogger, Poet and Author, by night, I spend my days writing everything from the convex comma, to highly complex code. More recently however, I have found myself engrossed in the technology stacks and toolsets necessary to power business.

Most of my professional career has involved Customising Content Management Systems, but I am also trained in Digital Marketing, and Data Analytics. Currently, I'm exploring the different ways by which I can apply my recently acquired Data Analytics skills.

project nigerian-graduates

Nigerian Graduates Analysis Data Analysis

This is an analysis I performed on survey data taken from a Kaggle Dataset of the responses of over 5000 graduates to a set of questions investigating their post-graduate circumstances called the Nigerian Graduate Report 2018 by Stutern.

I used R and R Markdown to perform and document my analysis. The results are best viewed in the Nigerian-Graduates-Analysis.html file or in R Studio where you can run the code chunks included in the Nigerian Graduates Analysis.Rmd R Markdown file.

project yorudi

Yorùdí CLI Utility

Yorùdí is a command-line Yoruba to English dictionary that I developed for myself to help me learn 2 languages at once: Scala, and Yoruba.

The tool is constantly in development as I add new words to my dictionary all the time! (and once in a blue moon some new features too :) )

project jquery-yql

jQuery - YQL jQuery Plugin

jQuery-YQL was an easy to use YQL plugin for jQuery which I used to power some of the listings on this website (specifically the anime and reading lists) by interfacing with the respective websites' APIs directly. That is, until Yahoo retired the YQL tool in 2019.

Note: By my standards this plugin was still in Alpha and not fit to be shared, but now that it's irrelevant, I think it can serve as an example of the coding I sometimes do in my free time.
