Hello Friends
My name is Idogun Ayomide Winner, and I feel so elated joining you guys here on this platform. A friend of mine, @joycealarapon, introduced me to this platform, and I'm grateful to her for doing so, and I'm also grateful to @kingsleyy for putting me through. I'm looking forward to learning and engaging with like-minded.
INTRODUCTION
As I said earlier, my name is Idogun Ayomide Winner. I hail from Ondo State, Nigeria, but I was born and brought up in a family of seven in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. I'm the third child out of five children and I'm a Christian.
I got my primary school leaving certificate from Damcos Nursery and Primary School in 2010. I went to a secondary school named Signs and Wonders High School, where I got my West African Senior Secondary Examination Certificate in 2016. Later that same year that I finished my secondary school, I gained admission into Igbinedion University, Okada, Edo State, Nigeria and later graduated from the university in November 2022 with a Bachelors of Pharmacy degree and got inducted into the pharmacy profession in January 2023. I'm currently observing my compulsory one-year National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in Abia State, Nigeria.

My hobbies include laughing, listening to music, and spending time with my loved ones. My favourite foods are pasta and fried plantains with turkey.
Writing has always been part of me since when I was young. I have written a few unpublished short stories and moral books as a teenager. When I was in the first year of my senior secondary school, I was nicknamed ‘The Scientific Novelist’ by one of my classmates and my mathematics teacher because I majored in the science department and I love to read novels a lot. It was believed at that time in my school that the students that majored in the art department were to be the ones reading novels because of the nature of the subjects they were offering. My desire for writing started wearing out when I had some challenges, but during one of my self-discovery sessions, I started to understand myself again, and my desire for writing started building up again.
I'm a simple, easy-going lady who loves to laugh a lot. I'm a lover of adventure and nature. Natural hair care has always been my passion and pride, which I also teach people around me who are interested in keeping and caring for their natural hair because it's not just about the style but how to wear and pack the hair and who you are as a person.

I'm very big on building quality and purposeful relationships, self-development, and growth. I believe that self-development and growth are continuous processes; also, I believe progression over perfection. I'm an advocate for a good mental health state, and I would always encourage people around me to make sure that they stay healthy mentally.
I'm looking forward to sharing more with you as time goes on.
See you in my next story. Bye
