Adedoyin Jaiyesimi - Global Communications Consultant

About Me

After ten years of working in the Communications field, I still don’t find it easy to talk/write about myself. Weird right?

Not really.

I have morphed from being a private, guarded child to becoming this confident and purposeful woman of God. It sounds straightforward but it has taken me over 20 years to settle into the woman I am today and to be comfortable in Adedoyin’s shoes.

So Who Am I?

I am a child of God

I am a child of God; completely and totally unashamed of the gospel of Christ.

I am a Communications professional.

I am a lover of food and the sweet things of life.

I am a voracious reader. You can be sure that you can win me over with books any day, any time.

I am on a mission to impact my world for Christ. That’s my life purpose. It’s the most important thing to me really.

I am a woman who is still on a journey, learning and growing every day.

I’m the girl with the big smile and some would also say, ‘the girl with the large heart’.

I don’t like to try new things but I like freshness. Well, sometimes.

I love my space. I love being in my head.

I am passionate about the work I do. Writing, creating content, developing communications strategy, training and coaching…these are just a few things that get me energized every day.

I am imperfect and like I said before, I am still on a journey.

As you go through my website, you will be going through different aspects of my life: my work, my faith, my world.

Learn from me, share with me, connect with me but most importantly, I pray what you read will push you to have a closer relationship with God.

Adedoyin Jaiyesimi is also a Communications Advisor and a Corporate Trainer.
