I recently completed an intensive Product Design Bootcamp with Brave Achievers, and it has been an incredible experience of growth, learning, and transformation. Transitioning from my background in finance and banking into the creative and human-centered world of product design was both challenging and rewarding. The Journey: I was eager to explore how design thinking and innovation can solve real-world problems. This bootcamp was more than just learning design tools; it was about embracing a new mindset—putting users first, solving problems creatively, and balancing functionality with aesthetics. The Challenges: Shifting from numbers and financial analysis to design concepts and prototyping wasn’t always easy. Learning tools like Figma, understanding UX/UI principles, and iterating designs based on feedback pushed me out of my comfort zone. However, with persistence, guidance, and teamwork, I overcame each challenge and grew more confident with every step. The Lessons: 1️⃣ Empathy is everything. Truly understanding the user's pain points drives meaningful solutions. 2️⃣ Iterate, iterate, iterate. The first idea is rarely the best—feedback and refinement are essential. 3️⃣ Collaboration fuels innovation. Working with like-minded peers reminded me of the power of teamwork in achieving great results. This experience has not only equipped me with technical skills but also strengthened my ability to think creatively and approach problems from multiple perspectives. I am excited to bring this skill set into future projects where design and strategy meet. A big thank you to the Brave Achievers team most especially Madam Pamela, Nelly, Godslove, Oyinlola and others for their mentorship and to my peers for their collaboration and support. The journey has just begun, and I look forward to creating impactful designs that solve real problems and add value to people’s lives. If you’re exploring a career shift or looking to upskill, I encourage you to step out of your comfort zone—the results will surprise you! 😊

Completing the Brave Achievers YouCreate Bootcamp as part of the Technical Writing track has been an exciting and transformative journey, filled with opportunities to grow, learn, and connect. Reflecting on the past weeks, I can confidently say this experience not only refined my writing skills and deepened my understanding of technical writing but also broadened my perspective on collaboration and teamwork. Our tutor, Ejiro Onose 🫡, truly made the learning process fun and engaging. His unique teaching style—encouraging open discussions and throwing in subtle banter during classes—turned each session into an enjoyable and enriching experience. He created an environment where everyone felt comfortable expressing themselves, boosting my confidence and strengthening my ability to articulate ideas effectively. The bootcamp offered a well-structured and comprehensive approach to technical writing. I learned how to break down complex topics, structure a technical document, write for specific audiences, and ensure clarity and precision in every piece—plus so much more! One standout resource that made a huge impact on me was “On Writing Well” by William Zinsser. It quickly became my go-to reference, and I’m grateful to Ejiro for sharing this gem with us. Exploring and using industry-standard tools like GitHub and Gitbook was quite interesting though a bit challenging at first. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be part of this program. Beyond the technical skills I’ve gained, I’ve met some amazing people—like Oreoluwa Akanni, Vivian Ezegendu (MVP), Kingsley Nwaode (the baddest UI/UX designer), Eunice Umoru and Chime Irene. I’ve also strengthened my teamwork abilities and gained much-needed clarity on my career path in technical writing. Would I recommend the Brave Achievers bootcamp? YES. Thank you, Brave Achievers, for an unforgettable learning experience.

Thank you for bringing so much energy and expertise to Re-Invent X! 🙌 Watching your class turn ideas into fully working apps in a single day was amazing. We’re excited about NoCode and AI's potential to transform lives in Nigeria. Huge congratulations to everyone who participated—you’re unstoppable!
Just back from the https://lnkd.in/dGB8jSDf conference in Lagos, Nigeria, hosted by Brave Achievers and the incredible unstoppable force Pamela Olomola. Meeting a 100+ people from all walks of life, it's evident that #NoCode and #AI level the playing field for anybody to take part. I look forward to seeing Nigeria, with all it's talents and drive, taking a big bite out of this. Big shoutout to all participants of my NoCode+AI class, who in just a day built their own working app using AI. From scratch. How amazing isn't that! No one can stop you now! Thank you Cheyenne Blaisdell and Bubble for, with little time, suppling a sweet package of credits for the participants. And of course the winner of the Node+AI competition Levi Omagbemi who made good use of facial recognition AI and packed that in a smooth Bubble app. So many great people supported and made this event possible. A special thanks to Abiodun Yusuf for her relentless work behind the scenes starting way before my arrival, and Timothy for fearlessly jumping in and help participants solving app building challenges in my class. I hope I will be allowed to be part of this journey and I'm looking forward to the next step, of course with my co-adventurer on this journey, Chrissie Cremers, with whom I got to share all the excitement. #nocode #ai #nigeria #bubble #empower

Every project manager's joy is seeing their ideas come to life after months of intensive planning. Two weeks ago, the largest AI training summit was organized by Brave Achievers . As a project manager intern, I had the opportunity to work and learn with an amazing and creative team at Brave Achievers. This event was more than just a summit; it was a gathering of brilliant minds, a space to learn from industry experts with extensive knowledge of AI, and an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals. It wasn't just about learning AI tools - there was a Job fair and an AI competition using No-code solutions to build product from scratch. I also had the chance to connect with my colleagues, as we all work remotely. I am immensely proud of what we achieved together as a team and grateful for the experience. The knowledge and skills gained from this project have been invaluable, and I'm excited to apply them to future projects. Thank you Pamela Olomola for this great opportunity! #ProjectManagement #ReInventX #AI #Teamwork #LearningExperience #Internship

From November 20th to 22nd exactly a week from today, I had the opportunity to speak at my third conference and workshop of the year, organized by Brave Achievers. I spoke about on the possible Interconnection between Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain and cryptocurrency. It’s exciting to see how these two technologies can combine to create amazing results. We looked at real-life examples, like the Truth Terminal AI agent, which turned a $50,000 Bitcoin investment into a $500 million project. Incredible right?🤯 We also explored tools like ChainGPT, a Large Language Model designed for Blockchain and cryptocurrency, as well as other AI tools that performed far beyond my expectations. There’s more to share, so stay tuned till the next post! #Blockchain #AI

Generative AI is not for the weak. I can say this confidently because I experienced it first-hand at the Reinvent X AI Training Summit. Before attending, I had minimal knowledge of AI tools, having experimented with only one. But this event was truly eye-opening. The possibilities with AI are mind-blowing, and the opportunities it opens up are endless. From the breakout sessions to the main segments, this three-day event was nothing short of remarkable. My perspective on tech and AI has expanded, and the value I gained is immeasurable. A huge thank you to our incredible facilitators, including Peter Nilsson and Chrissie Cremers. A special shout-out to Chrissie Cremers for the insightful sessions on Synthography (generating photorealistic images using AI)—I enjoyed every bit of it! I’d also like to thank Pamela Olomola and her phenomenal team at Brave Achievers for organizing such an inspiring event. The work you do is shaping the future, and I’m grateful to have been a part of it. PS: I met some amazing people at the summit, and my team and I also submitted an entry for the Gen AI Challenge —and guess what? We won! 💃🏾🎉 Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/erekuHAd #ReinventX #AISummit #AIfilmmaking #Animation

Orji Victor Chikeze Going from zero experience to producing a short film in just three days is incredible. We’re so proud of what you’ve accomplished and can’t wait to see the great things ahead. Keep creating and sharing your talent with the world!
Re-Invent X was indeed spectacular in every way,taking me from zero knowledge in AI film making to a short film Producer in less than 3 days. Experts like Chrissie Cremers,Godslove and Peter Nilsson gave me my first experience in using AI as a tool to generate and produce my first film. It's the beginning of something big and a clear path to greatness in AI Generation, this could only have been possible because a team of truly Brave Achievers decided to share their wealth of knowledge and experience with us though upcoming but believers in AI changing the world and rewriting the Africa story. Though my film won as Runner-up, I'm happy I could tell a story with AI and put it out for people to see. Like I said before,it's the beginning of great things to come and I'm grateful for the opportunity. Thank you Pamela Olomola and the Brave Achievers team for bringing this extraordinary event to Lagos Nigeria. And to the winner John Taiwo,it was a privilege to compete with you,you're someone I met and I connected with immediately, I hope to do great things with you in the nearest future and lastly,my very own brother and co-runnerup Esiri Orhorhoro,it was nice meeting another great mind,thank you for the competition you brought,it was indeed fun.
