Hi Hive Champions!
This is my first post on hive and one of the most exciting moments for me, finally stepping into a space that breathes creativity, growth, and powerful. connections.
What if I told you that a delayed plan could lead you to purpose? What if I said that one conversation could open a door you didn’t even know existed?That’s my story...
Getting to Know Me
Starting from the basics,let me tell you a little about myself. My name is Obioma Rosemary Ezenwa, a purpose-driven Educator, Microbiologist, and Football Lover. I was born and brought up in Nigeria. As the third child and first daughter in a family of six, I naturally leaned into leadership, empathy, and curiosity, three forces that now drive my journey.
My Educational & Career Journey
I earned a B.Sc. degree in Microbiology from one of Nigeria’s top-ranked universities. While science sharpened my mind, it was life that ignited my deeper calling, shaped my discipline, curiosity, and resilience.For me, learning never stops. Moved by curiosity about why some businesses fail while others thrive,I’m currently exploring the worlds of Product Management, expanding my digital skills to stay relevant in a fast-changing world. With a solid foundation in customer service, I’ve worked as a sales representative across three diverse business brands, learning what it truly means to understand customer's challenges, meet customer’s needs, exceed expectations, and deliver value. But here’s the twist that changed my story…
My Journey Into Education:How I Became an Educator
Sometimes, the best things in life come dressed as detours. After graduation, I anticipated the next step to be the Nigerian National Youth Service Corps (NYSC,a one year internship program for graduates). But that plan was delayed. At first, I was frustrated because I needed it to get a complete CV to be gainfully employed. But soon, I realized that it's high time to try something new. While waiting, I applied and got employed into one of the outstanding schools in my locality. I discovered a life-changing passion for teaching. Today, I proudly stand as an educator, mentoring young minds, shaping futures and tutoring incredible young talents who, I believe, are the future of innovation. Every moment in the classroom gives me a mother-like joy, nurturing, guiding, and watching brilliance unfold.
(More stories about my teaching experience coming soon... Stay tuned!)
Curious About My Personality?
Well,I’m just a cheerful, simple young lady with a mix of extrovert and introvert energy, call it the best of both worlds. I thrive in healthy social spaces.People say I’m warm, easy to connect with, and full of life. Maybe that’s because I’m driven by values, kindness, learning, empathy, and impact. I'm deeply passionate about humanitarian causes, self-development, and meaningful relationships that push me to grow.
My Hobbies & Lifestyle
I'm an advocate of fitness. I believe that life is meant to be enjoyed and football is my passion sport. Whether I’m watching or playing, it fuels my excitement (yes, I’m a proud football lover!). I also have a knack for healthy foods and I enjoy trying new recipes, from intercontinental dishes to healthy Nigerian cuisines. Lately, I discovered that I’ve developed a delicious obsession for vegetable sauce with rice, topped with fresh fruits!
My Mission on Hive
I didn’t just stumble into Hive, I was nudged by destiny! Sometimes,it takes just one connection to achieve what you would achieve alone in a decade. A friend of mine on Facebook casually asked me, “Rose, have you heard of Hive?” And I was like, “What’s that?” “Is that a beehive"...lol. He told me that it's a platform where your voice, story, and value will be seen, heard, and rewarded. That moment felt small, but it opened something BIG in me.
So what’s my mission here?
My mission on hive is to engage deeply, learn widely, and evolve into the woman I am becoming (wise, bold,and impactful).
I will be sharing value-loaded contents around motivation, lifestyle, education, career, and personal development.
I’m open to collaboration, connection, and mentorship.
Let’s Connect!
Let's network, collaborate, and create something that matters.
