Temiloluwa Olushola — design, engineering and; more

I’m currently a Senior Frontend Engineer at TransitionZero, and we are building out a no-code platform for energy systems modelling. I also contributed to the development of Solar Asset Mapper, a planetary-scale dataset of medium to large-scale solar power plants.

My interests and passions lie in the intersection of design, engineering and AI. As a result, I have a Master’s degree in AI, currently lead design at work and engineer solutions (one pixel at a time haha).

Outside of my work-related passions, I’m a gym rat, music lover, car enthusiast, outdoorsy type and most importantly, a child of God. Lately, I’ve been learning to dance Bachata and it’s been a blast. This site is my little home on the internet.

Thanks for stopping by, feel free to reach out to me on LinkedIn or email. Cheers!

The compounding effect of learning

October 6, 2024

While working on both personal and professional projects, I’ve realized that tasks I found difficult a year or two ago now come effortlessly. Yet, I still have the desire to keep learning, constantly seeking out more challenging things. Fortunately, the overall learning curve has become much easier.

I’ve now built sites and apps that my younger self would have been proud of—the kind of projects I once looked at and wondered, how was this made? Then, I’d try to figure it out within a day or two. This is a personal reflection on the compounding effect of learning and experience. No matter where you are in your journey or what stage you’re at, your goals are always within reach with continuous learning and practice. It doesn’t matter how challenging a task seems; the only gap between where you are (learning) and where you want to be (done) is time. Keep grinding.

This principle applies to everything: relationships with God and people, careers, and any pursuit.
