Some call me A.y; some call me Tim.My full name is Timothy Ayooluwaseyifunmi while my surname is Aderogba.

 I am a creative geek; who has earned a handful of indigenous awards from campus Hult prize for the design of Hydrothermal generator to State merit award for the creation of Vaccine cooler; now seeking to leverage on his passion and education to help bring peoples' dreams to fruition through design, brand management, and business consultancy.

 As leisures, I love designing and going on adventure trips.

 

UPBRINGING

I am the second of four children; born on a fateful Thursday; the 17th day of April 1997 to my parents – Dr. Adediji & Mrs. Folasade Aderogba; who are resident in Ilesa, the headquarters of the ancient Kingdom known as Ijesaland; in Southwest Nigeria.

I love my parents. They brought us up in the way of the Lord Jesus. After morning devotions, they had a daily habit of laying hands and prophetically praying for us the children.

One prayer that stuck with me, amongst their countless blessings, goes thus: you shall be taught of the Lord…;

Parental training and disciplines were never taken lightly in our home and that actually strengthened the basis of my Christ-centered lifestyle.

I got saved and baptized in the Spirit; on the 24th of January, 2008 in a remarkable and unforgettable experience that glorious evening at Jesus Celebration; an annual crusade organized then by the Anglican Diocese of Ilesa.

 

ACADEMICS

I attended primary school at Faith International Schools, Ilesa. I was barely an average student during my earlier years in primary school; until I began to discover purpose and made a decision to make something out of life. When I was in Primary 4, I was appointed the Head boy and graduated as the best student overall.

I studied Mechanical Engineering in my undergraduate days at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife between 2013 and 2018.

After my National Youth Service in Kebbi State, I got a scholarship (courtesy of Junior Achievement Nigeria) for a short course; venture in Management (VIMP 2020) at the prestigious Lagos Business School (Pan-Atlantic University), Lagos, Nigeria. This experience greatly spurred my dive into administrative innovations.

LEADERSHIP AND PROJECTS

I was captain of the team that led the campus phase of the Hult Prize 2018 and represented Nigeria at the Regional finals in Dubai, UAE; with our project - Hydrothermal Generator, that utilizes sun power to distill water at less energy for the use of sub-urban communities.

 While I specialized in design and business analytics, my other teammates were instrumental to our success. Emmanuel was the impact guy while Alex was the technical guy.

 I worked on an award-winning project while serving my fatherland as a Youth Corp in Kebbi State; having discovered that about 70% of drugs and vaccines that leave the urban health centers get less potent before reaching the local vaccine centers in remote areas. This spurred my creative heart to proffer a solution that would help preserve these medical supplies at cold temperatures without reliance on heavy refrigeration equipment and the incessant power supply.

 RELATIONSHIP

I got engaged to Priscilla, the love of my life on September 20, 2018. She is beautiful and godly intelligent. My walk with her had made me realize more of God's infinite love, and I'm so eager to dive in more as we go on this journey of purpose-discovery. She is God's will for my life, and I am convinced of better days ahead.

 WORK-LIFE

I am currently working as a Brand Manager at AMG Logredeem Ltd.; an interior design firm based in Ife, Nigeria where I am leveraging my passion and skills to bring about business innovations.

I also actively freelance as a Graphic Designer with my brand name - TIMSEmedia; I help startups and expanding businesses design timeless brands. I can also help you too with Graphics, branding, video Ads, and website design.
