For Someone Somewhere Who Has Been Doubting Her Ability, 36-Year-Old Dr Adeola Olubamiji’s Story Is The Biggest Inspiration For You

Adeola (Addy) Olubamiji (PhD) is an industry-4.0-expert and she is one of the few who have indeed used the power of technology (specifically 3D-printing) to navigate and thrive in the North American job market.

She is currently the Director of Additive Manufacturing Solutions at Desktop Metal, Massachusetts, USA. Prior to this, she co-led a multi-million-dollar.

Dr Olubamiji’s grass to grace story is an inspiration for many young women who are in doubt about their abilities.

From growing up in the slum of Mokola, Ibadan, frying akara to pay her school fees, working as a cleaner and a sales girl, Dr. Olubamiji is currently the Director of Additive Manufacturing Solutions at Desktop Metal, Massachusetts, USA.

Taking to Twitter on Tuesday, March 23, 36-year-old Dr. Olubamiji revealed that she is a Director at a Tech company, owns three houses and is on the list of Canada’s Top 100 Most Powerful Women.

“They said be a Director at 35. Me: I can’t make it. No Stanford degree, I have an accent and I am black,”

she wrote.

“35: – Director at a Tech Company, 3 Houses in the bag, Canada’s Top 100 Most Powerful Women, STEP Awards Honoree, RBC Top 25 Canadian Immigrants, 36, I am ready!”

Dr. Olubami is the chief consultant at Tech Centrix Ltd. (Canada & USA), the founder of STEMHub Foundation Canada and she sits on the board of several organisations such as Health & Science Innovations, Indiana, USA and AfricaHacks, USA.
