🌟 Empowering Our Future Leaders with Tech Education! 🌟 Thanks to Tunde Mabawonku thanks to Wema Bank Plc. For this great success. Louis Alaan and other 5 children got the Wema Bank Plc. schorlaships, laptops and educational tabs to support their dreams. My passion for quality tech education for children and teenagers is at another level, I can't stress enough how crucial it is to equip the next generation with the tools they need to succeed in a tech-driven world. The future is evolving faster than we can imagine, and technology is at the heart of that transformation. By introducing your child/ward to coding, robotics, and digital problem-solving skills, you're not just preparing them for a career—you’re empowering them to shape the world around them. We live in a time where innovation knows no bounds. Let’s help our kids unlock their potential by embracing tech education early on. The confidence, creativity, and problem-solving skills they’ll gain will carry them far beyond the classroom. Together, let’s build a brighter future, one young mind at a time!

💡 21-Day POTD Streak, Powered by Deutsche Bank 💡 I’m excited to share the completion of my 21-day Problem of the Day (POTD) streak—a journey fueled by continuous growth, learning, and discipline. Thanks to Deutsche Bank's incredible support, this challenge has been an eye-opening experience in mastering core data structures, algorithms, and developing a strong coding mindset. Over the past three weeks, I've tackled a wide range of problems—from detecting loops in linked lists to manipulating large numbers using modular arithmetic. Each challenge has helped me sharpen my problem-solving skills, pushing me to efficiently traverse data structures, apply theoretical concepts, and optimize solutions in real-time. It’s been more than just coding—it's been about applying knowledge practically and improving my ability to solve complex problems under pressure. Completing this 21-day challenge has reinforced the power of consistency. Beyond refining my coding skills, I've learned the importance of discipline, time management, and handling edge cases—all essential for technical interviews and real-world development. It's been a testament to the fact that consistent, small efforts can yield significant progress. Thanks to Deutsche Bank for supporting this journey, which has not only helped me build technical expertise but also fostered resilience, focus, and a commitment to continuous learning. These are qualities I’ll carry forward into every future challenge.

Wrapping up an incredible 2024! As the year comes to a close, I’m taking a moment to reflect on everything we achieved in 2024. It’s been a year of growth, challenges, and exciting milestones, as well as very well deserved vacations and trips. Here are some of the highlights that made this year unforgettable: • Organized our offsite—a space to align, strategize, and connect as a team. • Launched the Miami Fintech Club, creating a thriving community of fintech innovators. • Represented at Money20/20, where ideas and partnerships flourished. • Collaborated with a Formula 1 client, merging innovation with speed and precision. • Organized several events for clients such as Association of Certified Sanctions Specialists, Cladec, among others. • Gave our brand a fresh look, reflecting who we are and where we’re going. • Partnered with Miami Dade College, working on a project that bridges education and innovation. Each of these milestones wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible people I’ve worked with this year. Thank you for your collaboration, trust, and energy. Here’s to an even more transformative 2025—let’s keep building, innovating, and growing together! #YearInReview #2024Highlights #GrowthMindset #Innovation #Leadership #Teamwork
