Overview
About Me
Hello! I am a recent graduate from Wichita State University with a degree in Economics and Finance. As a daughter of two immigrants parents from Nigeria, I have long-time been fascinated with travel and the nuances of diverse cultures. Ditching my plans to attend graduate school and beginning full-time work, I am taking the opportunity to grow and explore.
Currently, perfecting my calligraphy and trying to blend watercolors better.
