***Hello guys!***

Yeah, it is a new dawn for me as  I am the luckiest person to be part of this amazing family.

My name is Ilesanmi Iretiayo, I hail from ondo state, Irele to be precise. 
I grew up in the streets of Irele, ondo state, Nigeria.

**ABOUT ME**

I was born and raised in a polygamous home, where I happened to be the second child of my mother.
My mother gave birth to daughters, hence making me the second daughter.

**MY EDUCATION**

I had all the phases of my education on the soil of Ondo state.
I started and ended my primary schooling in a popular school known as saint Helen's in Irele town where I grew up in!

I used to be the gentle and weak type in school. This resulted to a lot of intimidation and bullying. 
I had the worst memory when I was in primary 4/5, it was really horrible.

I became ripe enough for secondary school,  and I also started my secondary school on the soil of Ondo state, Irele town. I successfully finished my junior secondary schooling in a boarding school.

My parents agreed to continue my secondary school education in a boarding school as to them is the safest and best education given to a child!
I know a lot of us that went to boarding school have a lot of stories to tell about how horrible boarding school can be.

From the way our seniors treat and bully us to the way we learn to adapt to whatever comes our way.
However, boarding school seemed like a blessing to me, because it made me strong. I became bold and  conquered most of my fears!

With the help of God and sponsorship of my parents, I finished secondary school in the year 2015 and was early enough to secure admission into Adekunle Ajasin University in Ondo state, Nigeria where I studied English Studies. 

My time through out the university was fun. "I felt like it shouldn't end no more"
However, here I am getting ready to be a copper!

**MY HOBBIES**

■ First and foremost, I love music a lot. For me, music is a turn on for me. I have a lot of passion for music!
I used to battle a lot with singing as my friends and even my siblings would refer to me as "frog voice"

I never saw myself as what they saw me as, rather I kept being consistent wanting to know more about music.
In my final year in school, I was so lucky and fortunate to come across "D4MUSIC" popular known as @obaro here on hive.

He did a great favour for me because he really transformed my music life. He made me understand basic principles of music after I enrolled in his music school known as "D4MUSIC school"

■ I love art work too!
I discovered I could draw real well. I developed myself and became better.
And I still strive to become better daily. 
I also have other hobbies like writing and a lots more!

**WHY I JOINED HIVE**

I see hive as a life changing platform. I'm started to see the effects of hive positively as my writing skills is developed. 

On a normal day, I wouldn't sit to write a long essay like this. But I can tell, hive is really going to bring out a lot of qualities in me just as she has brought out qualities from other hivers.

I joined hive to explore, add value and reach the masses with the talents given to me.
Hive is indeed a blessing to me.

**HOW I GOT TO KNOW ABOUT HIVE**

I got to know about hive through a friend of mine and my music tutor known as D4MUSIC @obaro. He is such a strong back bone to me and has helped my life musically and in a lot of aspects!

He recommended me to be brought on board and it was activated by his mentor, @starstrings01 who I'm really grateful to for making my coming on hive a reality!

My sincere appreciation goes to @obaro, @starstrings01 for their pure and kind support and mentorship. 
And also to you all that stopped by to read, I say thanks!
