AI-assisted governance and organizational design
01 Cornell ’28 · Washington, DC
I build systems that make institutions work better for people.
I’m Ayotunde Ejiko, a Cornell student-athlete working across technology, strategy, public policy, education, athletics, and community leadership. I turn complex inputs into clearer decisions, stronger operating systems, and more accessible opportunities.
02 About the throughline
Different arenas. The same instinct.
Whether the setting is a nonprofit governance model, a school policy, a research agenda, a mentorship program, or a team tradition, I look for the structure underneath the problem. Then I work with the people closest to it to make the system clearer, more accountable, and easier to use.
