I am a writer and social entrepreneur.
As a writer, my work spans fiction, memoir, and art criticism, including the books Farad, A Stranger’s Pose and I Am Still With You.
I am chief executive of Tender Photos, a platform of photography and visual storytelling, which I co-founded with my wife Ayọ̀bámi Adébáyọ̀.
I teach courses on visual literacy. I offer research consultancy services for media and cultural organizations.
I am also a researcher in the digital humanities, currently pursuing a PhD project at the University of Cambridge as a Gates Scholar. My research uses computer vision algorithms to deepen understanding about conflict photography and archives in Nigeria.
A short list of my writing is here.A full CV-styled list of most of my short-form writing (print and online, with hyperlinks), is here.
Read my longer bio. See some of my photographs. Listen to Intimate Strangers, a collaborative jazz album I made with Portuguese-American soloist Sara Serpa (also on Spotify).
Until the end of 2027, I am on a sabbatical from short-form writing, but can make a few exceptions. You can contact me (through this form) for other research, teaching and consultancy inquiries.
