More about me
I currently work freelance and on personal projects. I'm looking for more production opportunities.
I’ve recently finished working on a BBC Sounds podcast, called ‘Museum of Bad Vibes’ as the lead researcher and overlapping with the assistant producer.
I also produce and co-host my own podcast, called Between Space on the diaspora from an academic and a Black pop culture perspective, ranging from the ethics of beauty influencers to speaking with the editors of 'Of This Our Country', a collection of essays about Nigerian identity. Earlier on this year we published an episode about the social media backlash around a new book called Soro Soke and knowledge politics more broadly in academia and journalism. We’re currently wrapping up a hair series, which has explored whether the natural hair movement failed and why (https://linktr.ee/betweenspacepodcast).
