How I moved from near-depression to building an AI solution for the depressed in 3+ years
When I landed in the UK 3 years ago straight into Isolation, within 10 days I almost got depressed,
Not because I lacked skills or education.
But because life as I knew it had paused and I had to start all over.
I was wrapping up my Ph.D., trading crypto successfully and life seemed “fine.”
I had promised my wife I’d support her dreams, even if it meant relocating, so we did.
But here’s the reality most people don’t talk about:
👉 Relocation isn’t always smooth. Many end up stuck, frustrated, even regretting it. Abroad, joblessness can strip you bare.
For me, that meant starting over as a support worker, juggling night shifts while figuring out how to break into the UK job market.
Fast forward 3 years:
I now serve as Head of Data Science & AI, mentoring professionals across the UK and watching mentees land interviews and roles weekly.
This is what made the difference
📌 Seeking mentorship from those who walked the path before me
📌 Adapting quickly to the market
📌 Building proof, not just certificates
📌 Doubling down on learning (and teaching)
📌 Trusting God and not walking alone
My advice: Get the right support. Get the roadmap. You’ll save yourself years of struggle and regret.
For anyone in the UK who wants to build skills, gain experience and land a role in this last quarter of the year,
I’m opening a special discounted birthday opportunity to join the Accelerator London Center For Analytics today. Reach out now.
PS: This week is my birthday 🎉. If my story has inspired you or helped you in anyway, please say a word of prayer for me — it means more than you know.
