A journey of passion and purpose

Professional experience

With over 20 years of experience in the energy sector across Africa, Europe, and North America, I have cultivated a diverse skill set. My career began at Guaranty Trust Assurance, a subsidiary of Guaranty Trust Bank Plc, where I started as a Bancassurance Associate. This role provided a solid foundation for my subsequent positions, including Projects and Programs Manager at Shell and Avangrid in the United States. Currently, I am the Construction Utility Project Manager at the Iberdrola Group, where I manage grid and infrastructure reliability projects. My focus is on energy development and grid reliability, and I am dedicated to driving innovation and excellence in my field. I have had the privilege of collaborating with talented professionals and contributing to projects that have received international awards and recognition.

Personal and social achievements

Beyond my professional pursuits, I am deeply committed to community service and social impact. In honor of my late father, Engr. G.G. Adegoke (Agboworin), I founded the Agboworin Foundation, which focuses on sustainable energy development to enhance rural economic growth in Nigeria. I also co-developed the Empower Nigeria initiative, aimed at creating pathways to prosperity in rural areas through programs that support girls in energy projects and empower youth in climate and AI fields.

I actively engage in various community development initiatives and contribute to the African Diaspora Community Forum. My leadership in community engagement projects includes promoting job creation through investments in African-centered development centers, such as the former Sidaz Place in Newark, New Jersey. One of my proudest achievements is establishing a training center in Kwara State, which serves as a mentoring platform for local youth. This experience has reinforced my belief in the power of collective action and the significance of giving back to society.
