Biomedical Engineering Student • Researcher • Builder

Hi, I’m Ayo.

I’m passionate about engineering, research, and building meaningful things that help people grow.

As a transfer student, I’ve learned that opportunities rarely come with a roadmap—you have to seek them out, ask questions, and keep building, even when you’re unsure.

Through engineering, research, leadership, entrepreneurship, and community building, I’ve realized something:

Most students don’t lack potential. They lack clarity, structure, and a community that encourages them to keep going.

That’s why I created The Balanced Engineer and Build in Public—to help students turn curiosity into consistent action through coaching, accountability, and intentional growth.

I’m still building too. That’s why I believe we build better together.

Research

Turning curiosity into disciplined questions.

Leadership

Creating structure where people feel supported.

How It Works

Three simple steps from uncertainty to visible progress.

Pick Sprint or Accelerator based on the level of structure you need right now.

2. Schedule your sessions.

Choose a rhythm that fits your calendar and the kind of accountability you want.

3. Build with clarity.

Make consistent progress with structure, feedback, and a clear next action after every session.

Is Build in Public Right for You?

This is for you if:

• You have ideas but struggle to take action.
• You want accountability.
• You’re navigating tech, business, engineering, research, entrepreneurship, or career decisions.
• You’re ready to build consistently.

This isn’t for you if:

• You’re looking for someone else to do the work.
• You’re unwilling to commit to consistent effort.
• You’re looking for overnight results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is this for?

Students, engineers, researchers, early-stage founders, and builders who want more clarity, accountability, and structure around their next step.

Do I need to already have an idea?

No. You can come with a clear project, a messy idea, or just a direction you want to explore. The first goal is clarity.

Can I choose between 1:1 and group coaching?

Yes. You can choose the setting that helps you stay most focused—private support or a small group environment with shared momentum.

What happens after payment?

You’ll receive next steps for scheduling, sharing your goals, and preparing for your first session.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. Sprint is designed as a starting point, and you can move into Accelerator when you want deeper support.
