-  I'm an Analytics Engineer with Data Culture, a Data Consulting firm where I use dbt regularly to help      clients build quality-tested data assets. I've also got a background in financial services and supply      chain. I'm passionate about helping organizations to become data-driven and I majorly use dbt for data     modeling, while the other aspect of the stack is largely dependent on the client infrastructure I'm        working for, so I often say I'm tool-agnostic. 😀

+  I’m an Analytics Engineer with Data Culture, a Data Consulting firm where I use dbt  regularly to help clients build quality-tested data assets. Before Data Culture, I worked at Cowrywise, one of the leading Fintech companies in Nigeria, where I was a solo data team member, and that was my first introduction to dbt and Analytics Engineering. Before that, I was doing Data Science and Analytics at Deloitte Nigeria. It’s been an exciting journey since I started using dbt and joining the community.Outside of work, I’m very passionate about Community building and Data Advocacy. I founded one of Nigeria’s most vibrant Data communities, “The Young Data Professional Community.” I’m also the Founder of the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.meetup.com/lagos-dbt-meetup/">Lagos dbt Meetup</a> and one of the organizers of the Largest Data Conference in Africa, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.datacommunityafrica.org/datafestafrica/">DataFest Africa Conference</a>.

So when I’m not actively working I’m involved in one community activity or the other.

-Maybe, I will consider DevRel as a career sometime because of my innate passion and love for community and people. Several folks tell me I'm a strong DevRel talent and a valuable asset for any product-led company.

On a side note, it was really exciting for me to attend Coalesce 2024 in Vegas in person, which allowed me not only to learn but, most importantly, to meet amazing persons I’ve only interacted with online, like Bruno, Kuberjain, Dakota and many more; shout-out to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.zenlytic.com/">Zenlytic</a> and <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.lightdash.com/">Lightdash</a> for making that possible and, most importantly, a huge shout-out to the dbt Lab community team: Amada, Natasha and everyone on the community team for their constant supports to helping out with making the dbt Lagos (Nigeria) meetup a success.

-My dbt learning journey kicked off with the CoRise (now Uplimit) course <a href="https://uplimit.com/course/analytics-engineering-with-dbt/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Analytics Engineering with dbt</a>, with Emily Hawkins and Jake Hannan, in February 2022 – less than a month after starting as a data engineer with the City of Boston Analytics Team. About a year later, I spearheaded the adoption of dbt at the City and got to build the project and associated architecture from scratch – which is probably the best learning experience you could ask for! I saw the value dbt could bring to improving data management processes at the City, and I knew there were other cities and local governments that could benefit from dbt as well, which motivated me to find my fellow co-speakers Ian Rose and Laurie Merrell to give a talk at Coalesce 2023 called <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aX7tAfMmIM&" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">"From Coast to Coast: Implementing dbt in the public sector".</a> As a part of our goal to identify and cultivate a community of dbt practitioners in the public (and adjacent) sectors, we also started the dbt Community Slack channel <a href="https://getdbt.slack.com/archives/C05MNU6QB5L/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#industry-public-sector</a>.

   I first started using dbt in 2016 or 2017 (I can't remember exactly). Since then, I have moved into data and analytics consulting and have dipped in and out of the dbt Community. 
+  
   Late last year, I started leading dbt Cloud training courses and spending more time in the <a href="https://www.getdbt.com/community/join-the-community/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">dbt Slack</a>. 
+  
   In consulting, I get to use a range of stacks. I've used dbt with Redshift, Snowflake, and Databricks in production settings with a range of loaders & reporting tools, and I've been enjoying using DuckDB for some home experimentation. 
+ 
   To share some of the experiences, I regularly post to LinkedIn and have recently started <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/analytics-engineering-today-7210968984693690370/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Analytics Engineering Today</a>, a twice monthly newsletter about dbt in practice.

+## When did you join the dbt community and in what way has it impacted your career?
+
+I've led data teams for almost ten years now and it can be a challenge to stay current on new technology when you're spending a lot of time on leadership and management. I joined the dbt Community to learn how to get more from it, how to solve problems and use more advanced features, and to learn best practices. I find that answering questions is the way I learn best, so I started helping people!
+
+## Which dbt Community leader do you identify with? How are you looking to grow your leadership in the dbt community?
+
+I hope that we can all continue to level up our dbt skills and leave the data environments that we work in better than we found them.
+
+## What have you learned from community members? What do you hope others can learn from you?
+
+Everything! People share so much about their best practices and when and how to deviate from them, interesting extensions to dbt that they've worked on, common bugs and problems, and how to think in a "dbtish" way. I couldn't have learned any of that without the community!

   In the first periods, Winter 2022 and Spring 2023, we focused on contributing directly to the adapter, adding relevant features like Iceberg and Lake Formation support, and stabilizing some internal behaviour.

   On a second iteration our role was triaging, providing community support and bug fixing. We encouraged community members to make their first contributions, and helped them to merge their PRs.
