About Me
Prospective graduate researcher in Animal Nutrition and Feed Science, with a strong foundation in Animal Production and Health.
My research focuses on evaluating alternative and functional feed resources to enhance livestock productivity, health, and sustainability.
I am currently conducting research on the phytochemical screening and chemical composition of black sunflower seeds as feed additives for West African Dwarf goats, aiming to improve nutrition and performance.
For my MSc/PhD studies, I am pursuing the project: “Evaluation of brewer’s dried grains as a functional feed for improving milk yield, milk composition, and rumen function in dairy goats.”
I am actively seeking academic collaborations, research opportunities, and mentorship with researchers whose work aligns with animal nutrition, feed science, and sustainable livestock systems. My goal is to contribute to evidence-based strategies that support efficient, healthy, and sustainable animal production.
Academic and Practical Experience:
Research Assistant at Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) since August 2025, supporting research in animal production and related areas.
Six-month industrial training in ruminant production, gaining hands-on experience in feeding systems, animal management, and health monitoring.
