Who I Am
Academic Affairs & Research MinisterCarnegie Mellon University Africa
My interest in academics and research did not start here. It has been part of who I am for a long time, and so has the interest of every student. I am Damilare, and my heart is in the work.

In this video I share how my love for academics and research began, how I help others, and why the interest of students matters so much to me. It is the story behind the work, so you can see this is who I am and that I am ready to do it. New videos are added here over time.
