  • Description is exactly "Kunmi Otitoju, born in Lagos, Nigera in 1983, attended Virginia Tech as a master's student in computer science from 2005 to 2007. Growing up, Kunmi grew up in Nigeria and attended primary and high school there. Her older sister was an exceptional student and took part in an exchange program with Howard University and NASA, allowing her to get a bachelor's degree at Howard. Her experience inspired Kunmi's parents to send her to the United States for college.

    She got into Howard on a scholarship studying electrical engineering, but switched to computer science her freshmen year. After graduating, she ultimately chose Virginia Tech for computer science after they offered her a teaching assistantship.

    In this interview, Kunmi talks about her journey of arriving at Virginia Tech, her personal and academic experiences as a graduate student (including salsa dancing), and learning and working as a textile artist."
