The Canadian Immigration Success Story of a Nigerian Woman

Joy Chukwu-Osazuwa had a rough start when she arrived in Canada in 2018. She got into Canada pregnant with her third child. At the same time, she was getting ready to start studying for a fully funded Ph.D. in marine biology at Memorial University in St. John’s. Initially, everything felt like a struggle, because she had to settle in a new city and country without her husband and two other children.

Canadian Visa Professionals reported that it was quite difficult for Chukwu-Osazuwa to adapt, secure a place to live and settle down without a car. Having to experience the Canadian winter for the first time was another major challenge. But, the courageous Nigerian woman took things one day at a time, and the struggle eased off with time.

Based on Chukwu-Osazuwa’s experience as a newcomer in Canada, she decided to help other immigrants adapt to Canada.

Besides being a Ph.D. student, Chukwu-Osazuwa is the director of strategy, growth and marketing with Skyned Consults. She uses her role in this Black-owned education technology company to help people achieve their dreams of studying abroad.
