Meet your Ej.

I'm a deeply social person who genuinely loves building community. Not in a buzzword way. I mean I'll actually plan the event, make the food, create the invite, and still be the last one to leave.

Nigerian-born, raised across Madrid and London, now living in Toronto. That mix of cultures lives in everything I do: how I host, how I cook, how I dress, how I connect with people.

I started Naija Connect to bring the Nigerian community in Toronto together in an intimate, joyful way. Naija Connect brought over 350 newcomers to Toronto together over 3 years. Alongside that I've built Couples Cinema Club, Mindset Circle, and After Work Drinks. Because I believe the best things in life happen when the right people are in the right room.

Creativity runs through everything I do, including my hair. I'm always in my natural hair and it's one of my favourite ways to express who I am. Since 2016 I've channelled that same energy into Ejiro Designs. An illustration business rooted in representation: giving people who don't always get to see themselves, a visual outlet to their imagination.

Representation
through creation.

This is Bantu. One of my illustrations capturing the beauty, texture, and spirit of natural hair. Through my art I aim to give people who don't always have the opportunity to be captured, a visual outlet to their imagination.

Toronto Tech Think Tank · Convening 2026

An intimate cohort.

I'm convening a small group of friends across tech-adjacent roles for a structured, curriculum-based cohort. AI, building, security, go-to-market, and the operator and founder questions we're all sitting with. Not a community, not a podcast, not a brand. Just a deliberate room of people pushing each other to think clearly.

Discover my experience.

I'm a complete, multidisciplined professional with a proven track record as a high performer across multiple environments. I combine creativity, analytical rigour, business development instinct, and product vision into one career. A rare blend that shows up strategically in every room.

I built my career across three continents: starting as a performance marketer at major global agencies in London, moving into technology programme management at BT and Scotiabank, then growing strategic partnerships in emerging markets for Amazon Ads across LATAM, MENAT, and APAC. Now owning the roadmap for the seller-facing platform on Amazon.ca.

¡Hola! I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, and have delivered work across LATAM, EMEA, APAC, and North America. I bring a global lens and a cross-functional leadership style to everything I do.

A champion for women in leadership. I attended an all-girls school in London and studied at Royal Holloway, University of London. Founded by Thomas Holloway and officially opened by Queen Victoria in 1886, it was one of the very first dedicated women's colleges in the UK and a pioneering institution for women's higher education alongside places like Girton College, Cambridge. I led Scotiabank's Black Employee Network for several years and continue to advocate for visibility and voice in tech. Available for public speaking on leadership, career navigation, and community building.
