Nigerian-American. From Atlanta, GA. Second-generation. Business/Finance major.

Personality: Eli is the reason this apartment functions. He runs the group's finances like a small corporation — shared spreadsheets, a house Venmo, budget categories for groceries, utilities, and a discretionary "fun fund" that he monitors with the intensity of a Wall Street analyst. He clips coupons without shame. He negotiated the rent down before they even moved in. But Eli isn't cheap — he's strategic. Because he's smart with money, he's the one who actually has money to go out.

Comedy: His financial brain never turns off. The apartment could be in the middle of a spontaneous road trip, a wild party, an emotional crisis — and Eli will find the exact right moment to ask: "Do we have room for this in the budget?" The tone shifts every time. Sometimes deadpan serious. Sometimes genuinely concerned. Sometimes excited because he already made room. Sometimes defeated because he knows the answer is no but they're doing it anyway. Sometimes whispered to V like a prayer. Same line, infinite delivery. That's the bit.

Heart: His parents built their life from nothing through discipline and sacrifice. Eli absorbed that — the work ethic, the responsibility, the idea that you don't waste what you've earned. But carrying the group's financial weight sometimes feels like carrying his family's expectations in miniature. He's the guy everyone leans on, and he doesn't know how to say "I need to lean too."
