Born in Lagos Nigeria into poverty, I didn’t have the luxury of cables with multiple channels. Instead my luxury which became oone of my favourite past times was “Tales By Moonlight”, a cherished Nigerian cultural tradition and a popular television program that has shaped the childhoods of millions of Nigerians across generations.

Upon becoming a mother in Africa’s Diaspora, wanting to give my children a part of my childhood led me to telling Nigerian and African stories. This led to the birth of this portfolio.

Creating this aspect of my portfolio felt really grounding in my heritage; while exploring the world and her gifts. I stopped feeling lost.

I felt found.
