UI Graduate Shares Fondness with Career

According to Pauline, she first studied English and Music at the Federal College of Education, Abeokuta, before proceeding to the University of Ibadan, where she also studied Music. In her post, she explained that her passion for music extends beyond academics and professional practice. The UI graduate described herself as a vocalist, violinist, and entrepreneur who currently serves as the Chief Executive Officer of Pauline Musique Consult.

Reflecting on her relationship with music, Pauline stated that she sees the discipline as more than just a profession. She said in her LinkedIn post in part: "I am a graduate of the Federal College of Education, Abeokuta, where I studied English and Music, and also a graduate of the University of Ibadan, where I studied Music. I am a vocalist and violinist, and I serve as the CEO of Pauline Musique Consult. Under this platform are Pauline Musique Store, focused on the sales of musical instruments and accessories, and Pauline Musique Academy, where young minds most especially (adults not exempted though) are trained in music, with particular attention to foundational and practical development. My understanding of music goes beyond it being a profession. I see it as an experience, something that shapes emotion, thought, identity, and human connection in different ways."
