About!

Hi, I am AdeOla Fadumiye.
I am a writer/editorial consultant and founder of JostWrite, a writing and editorial consulting firm providing a wide range of professional writing and editorial consulting services to non-profits and small businesses, as well as entrepreneurs, to help market products, service and brand.

A Thousand Miles...The First Steps chronicles my journey. I share my ups, downs, inspirations, food, faith, travel joys, lifestyle, entrepreneurial pains and tips. It is a one-stop location for exploring my life, growth, journey and travels.

I am an avid reader and an aspiring world-travel writer. I am currently working on my first book. Other activities I enjoy are cooking, dancing, working out, sports, watching movies, and several outdoor activities. I am an adventurer at heart.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Mass Communication; Public Relations and Communication Studies at the Winona State University, Winona MN, and a Masters in Public Health Promotions from the George Washington University, Washington DC. I have worked in the fields of public relations, marketing, and public health.

I currently reside in Washington DC, but I spend my days dreaming of the sunny beaches of California and the beautiful Italian landscapes.

“I love discovering new ways to weave words together. Something pleasant dances inside me when words work themselves into the right rhythm for the story they’re telling. I write not just to share information, but for beauty and to share the life, struggle and journey of people. I write to inspire, to share hope and to tell the stories of triumph emerging out of pain and passion.”
