He was born in Nigeria and lived here till he was 11, then he moved to the UK with his family. He studied at the University of the West of England, where he graduated with a 1st Class, before going on to hold a residency at the Pervasive Media Studio. His focus project was of course, the Meka Monsters.

In 2015, he was accepted into Qualcomm Robotics Accelerator, powered by Techstars in San Diego, U.S.A. Qualcomm, by the way, one of the biggest processor manufacturers in the world.
