About
Hello my name is Ehis. I provide professional financial management and advisory services (financial direction + solutions) to SMEs in Nigeria. I boast of 16+ years of experience in this space.
I am interested in West Africa as I believe there so much going on in the startup space in the last couple of years; African startups are providing world class Solutions – the likes of Flutterwave, paystack.
I am looking to support early to mid stage startup founders as I believe mentors can add the most value at these phases, which is the most crucial for their next level of growth.
My interests are in – fashion, lifestyle (personal care), food/beverage and tech businesses.
I have a strong bias for women owned startups. I am passionate about seeing African and women owned businesses grow and scale.

Mentorship motivation
- I like to learn about industries and new businesses
- I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up
- I want to make new connections for myself and/or the organization I represent
- I want to scout for new opportunities in engaging as an advisor or for a board seat
1. The businesses I provide financial management services to, have over the year grown in their needs. Such needs can easily be provided for by another business where a network or connection exists.
2. My business provide a ‘value’ for ‘ownership’ arrangement for Businesses. This will comes in handy for some startups.
3. Startups need a board to hold them accountable. A financial expert with industry experience is a must for any startup/business board.
4. Startups are revolutionizing traditional industries with breakthrough ideas. I’m providing mentoring and also learning about new Businesses.
