My name is Alade Anthony, and I’m truly excited to be here as a new member of this wonderful Community. I was born and raised in Ekiti State, Nigeria, and I’m proud to call it my home buoyantly. I’m a graduate of Computer Science and have also completed my NYSC program, which was an amazing experience that allowed me to serve my country and meet people from different walks of life.
I come from a family of four, and one of the things that makes us special is how close-knit we are. We share so many things in common from the values we hold dear to the little traditions we practice at home. Family has always been my foundation, and the bond we share continues to shape the person I am today.
Like many graduates in Nigeria, the journey after school hasn’t been the easiest. The road to survival in today’s world can be challenging, but I believe challenges are opportunities in disguise. They push us to think creatively, adapt, and keep striving for better. This is one of the reasons I value communities like Hive Reachout a place where people connect, inspire each other, and grow together.
As for my hobbies, I’m someone who enjoys listening to music a lot. Music has always been my safe space a way to relax, reflect, and recharge. My favorite genres include Hip Hop, R&B, and Afrobeat Naija. There’s just something about the energy of Afrobeat, the smoothness of R&B, and the lyrical creativity of Hip Hop that speaks to me. Music, to me, is more than just sound it’s an experience that connects people no matter where they’re from.
I’m also a big fan of watching football (A Chelsea Fan to be Precise). Whether it’s cheering for my favorite team during an intense match or just enjoying the spirit of the game, football is one sport that always excites me. Beyond entertainment, I see football as a sport that brings people together, teaching teamwork, strategy, and perseverance.
Another big part of my life is research. As a Computer Scientist, I naturally have a curious mind. I enjoy exploring new ideas, learning about emerging technologies, and finding creative ways to solve problems. Technology is evolving every day, and keeping up with it not only sharpens my skills but also opens my eyes to endless possibilities.
I actually learned about Hive through a friend on Facebook who spoke so highly about this community. They shared stories about how engaging, supportive, and inspiring Hive Reachout members are, and I knew I had to be a part of it. From what I’ve seen so far, I’m certain this is a place where I can connect with like-minded people, learn new things, and also contribute positively.
I’m here to learn, share, and grow. I look forward to meeting amazing people, exchanging ideas, and building genuine connections. Most importantly, I promise to abide by the community rules and uphold the values that make Hive Reachout such a great space for everyone.
Thank you for welcoming me, and I’m excited about this journey ahead.
