I was born and raised in Nigeria, graduated last year from Harvard University where I studied Economics, work for Bain & Company in New York and am doing a one year transfer to Bain's office in Lagos. I was recently asked to describe myself in 20 words for a grad school application, and think that these 20 words best describe me:

"Energy, Nigerian, Passionate, Ambitious, Spiritual. Laughter, Goofy, Bold, Quirky, Adventurous. Fashion, Beyoncé-obsessed, Entrepreneurial, Driven, Caring. Love, Optimist, Romantic, Dessert Please?"
