A Bit About Me
My name is Ope. I am a Harvard Law School-educated lawyer and legal technology expert. Passionate about law and artificial intelligence, legal innovation, and non-traditional paths in the law, I advise students and lawyers on how best to leverage their legal expertise in the 21st century. I am the author of The Food Lover’s Guide to Law, a fun and engaging visual study aid. Raised in a Nigerian-American home, I love inspiring the next generation to write their own stories.
The League of Style is my debut fiction novel.
​A Journey Rooted in Connection
My journey is one of balancing worlds. Growing up as a first-generation Nigerian-American in the USA, I found my connection to Nigeria through the fashion, culture, and literature that enriched my life from afar. This connection fueled my passion for law and storytelling, and it led me to graduate from Harvard Law School and pass the bar exam in one take. But my story didn’t stop there. My desire to simplify complex law concepts guided me to create The Food Lover’s Guide To Law, a study guide that transforms the daunting into digestible texts. Inspired by the country I call home in my heart, I also wrote The League Of Style, a thrilling novel set in the Nigerian fashion industry.
Connecting and Inspiring the Next Generation
​At the core of everything I do is a mission of connection and aspiration. I want to help young people look toward the future with confidence and boldness. I aim to provide aspiring lawyers with the tools and inspiration to achieve their dreams. Through my stories, I hope to offer a connection to home for Africans in the diaspora. I believe that by empowering the next generation, we can build a future where talent and creativity lead the way in bettering lives across the continent and beyond. Through my work, I hope to inspire a new generation of African millennials and Gen Zs to pursue their dreams, use their talents, and make a lasting impact on the world. Whether through law or storytelling, my journey is about finding a way forward—a way that is hopeful, beautiful, and centered on making a difference.
