Putting in the work - Designer Oladimeji Ajegbile
Oladimeji studied architecture but soon realised he wanted to make his own thing. Not a building or a structure, but a creative business that would free him from the nine-to-five.
Developing the skills he learned in university, Oladimeji taught himself graphic design. He put in the hours to practise and got started by volunteering his services to local businesses.
Today, Oladimeji works globally, offering a variety of design services to clients and creating content to educate and inspire the next generation of creatives.
He chats to Steve about how he meets and keeps clients, why he creates content and how he found balance after burnout.
