About
I build financial and data-driven systems that make businesses run better.
I work at the intersection of finance, data and automation. My work is shaped by real operating environments — the kind where reporting deadlines are fixed, data arrives messy, and the numbers still have to be right.
The pattern I see everywhere is the same: a messy manual process, held together by one person's effort. My job is to turn that into a structured system — something that runs the same way every time, whoever is operating it. I start with questions first and tools second: understand how the work actually flows, then simplify it, then automate what should never have been manual.
What I Do
Five kinds of work
Most people come to me for Excel or data problems; what they usually get is a better way of working entirely.
Data Analysis & Reporting
Management reporting and dashboards that answer real questions — receivables, sales, stock — refreshed and reliable.
Excel Modelling & Automation
Financial models and Excel systems — dynamic formulas, Power Query, Power Pivot and VBA — engineered, not improvised.
Process & Workflow Design
Mapping how work actually moves, removing the friction, and designing workflows people can follow without heroics.
Systems & ERP Development
Building the platforms behind the reporting — currently HAQLY ERP, an integrated business operating system for SMEs.
Training & Knowledge Transfer
Teaching Excel and financial modelling to teams — 200+ staff and management trainees trained so far.
Automotive Context
Shaped by automotive operations
As Team Lead, Finance Operations at a multi-company automotive group in Lagos, my daily work sits inside vehicle sales and aftersales operations: inventory-heavy workflows, receivables and financial tracking, operational reporting and reconciliation.
The problems are rarely clean. Data sits in different places. Numbers don't align. Reports take too long. That environment is exactly what taught me to build systems instead of workarounds.
How I Think
Questions first, tools second
Every engagement follows the same path: manual process → structured workflow → automated system.
Ask questions
What is this process really for? Who depends on the output, and what breaks when it's late or wrong?
Understand the process
Follow the work as it actually happens — not as the procedure manual imagines it.
Simplify
Remove duplication, standardise inputs, and make the right way the easy way.
Automate
Only then automate — so the system carries the routine and people carry the judgement.
Real Work
Snapshots from the day job and the bench
Excel accounting system for a new company
A complete bookkeeping system in Excel — including an automated fixed asset register, dynamic depreciation schedules, and a trial balance produced by selection logic rather than manual extraction.
Tax computation: days → minutes
A multi-day tax computation rebuilt into a minutes-long process, using Goal Seek and VBA bulk calculation to run the full population instead of case-by-case manual work.
Dynamic loan reporting system
A reporting system that tracks principal, interest and facility summaries over time — built for vehicle and asset financing, updating itself as terms and balances change.
Aftersales variance schedules
Automated variance schedules in an automotive environment — actual against budget and history, with deviations flagged for operations instead of buried in spreadsheets.
Tools I Use
What solves the problem best
- Excel — advanced formulas, Power Query, Power Pivot, VBA
- Power BI & DAX — semantic models and reporting
- SQL & PostgreSQL — data at the source
- Next.js / NestJS — systems building
I don't chase tools. I use what solves the problem best.
Teaching
Making people more capable
I've trained 200+ staff and management trainees in Excel and financial modelling — beginners, professionals and whole teams. The goal is never the formula itself: it's to make work easier and make people more capable.
Broader Perspective
AI, geopolitics, and what's next
I follow AI and geopolitics closely — not casually, with intent. They influence how systems, markets and decisions evolve, and how businesses should prepare.
Where I'm Going
Solutions-driven operator
The direction is constant: identify real problems, design systems around them, and deliver practical solutions — whether that's an Excel engine, a dashboard, or a full ERP platform.
Let's build better systems, solve real problems, or collaborate.
