Adedamola Ogunlesi

Adedamola Ogunlesi (Xhris) is a Nigerian poet and fiction writer, and a psychologist-in-training (read: full-time overthinker, part-time feeler). His work explores memory, metaphors, and the beautiful mess of being human—especially the parts we don’t always say aloud at family dinners. Unpublished (for now), he writes from Lagos, Nigeria, and can often be found designing, curating a playlist, binge-reading, cooking, or analysing someone’s childhood—his own or someone else’s.
