About Ade Adeyokunnu
Ade was born in Nigeria and grew up in Maryland, USA. He currently lives in the Philadelphia area in Pennsylvania, where he now works in health product marketing at a tech company. He studied Computer Science, and Information Technology and later earned his MBA from the University of Texas at Austin. He has always been passionate about sickle cell advocacy for as long as he can remember. It’s what drove him to create sikcell.com in 2009, the first online community for people living with sickle cell disease. He believes building a support network of people who understand what you’re going through is crucial when you’re living with an isolating and often misunderstood, chronic condition like this sickle cell disease. He loves traveling, learning, and spending time with his wife!
